And I wouldn't exactly call 500 people a large group. In the past they have ruled by scare tactics. They no longer have the clout they used to have. Breeders are not afraid of them. |

I agree there are a lot out there that I wouldfn't take if they were given to me. Who knows where they came from. But Sue and I and Tammy know where ours came from. We cannot control all the other breeders any more than you can control what other traditionsl breeders do. |

If one wants to make a difference then become a member and have input, instead of complaining about how a club is run and their clout.....be what may they did change the standard and are the only ones that have that power. |
I have no vested interests in this topic one way or another, and although I've looked into it, I'm certainly far from an expert. But I'm VERY interested to see where the futures of Partis and Beiwers take them. I personally haven't seen many that appeal to me (just my personal preferences), but the ones that do are undeniably gorgeous. I will absolutely love watching and seeing how those lines continue to be developed. |

The fact that the AKC did extensive testing and is sastisfied that these are truely purebred yorkies hould be enough to convince them. And if it isn't then why not do their own studies if they want more proof. |

Honestly,would it be that easy for Jeanie, Sue or myself?? How open would the arms of YTCA be for those of us that breed "off-colors"? You're a member, right? Would you tell them that you, personally, are offering us an invite and welcome us as equals? Tammy |

There are not enough people UNITED, behind the push to get it recognized. The information and research being presented to them and the AKC is very minimal andn not enough to be taken seriously and considered. |
Quote:
If they want to have control over the parti standards then they should get smart and accept them and set the standards themselves, before someone else does. If one does not evolve they become extinct. |

I base my opinions on more than what I see online..... |

Probably not.....but, that's my point....it does no good to complain...do what is necessary to accomplish what you want....... By the way it wasn't easy for me to be accepted as a member, it was a process that took 8 months. Granted that no National Breed club is perfect, but it is the governing forum for each breed...... |
Quote:
Breeders have always had their options......they are not losing power, they will remain the keeper of the standard and what is acceptable within the breed..... Believe me they want no control over the parti standard.... |
Quote:
Then they will either have to accept them, or provide proof that they are not yorkies and in that case set us free to establish our own breed club. it will be interesting to see if they com to different concklusions than the AKC. |

I find it interesting that with all of the yorkie breeders out there and as long as the YTCA has been around that there are only a little over 500 members. |

Because it is comprised mostly of serious exhibitor/breeders, with a few pet owners...the process in becoming a member is a long one....yes, it's not perfect and some members are not reputable, but have fallen through the cracks. However, in the last couple of years it has become more stringent in who is allowed into membership |

Sue Sue..you completely misunderstood what I was trying to say...digging for gold was not meant for Nikko, I must have said it very poorly...for this reason I will not respond to any more of this thread..I do not want to be accused of bashing or being anti-Biewer...I still might be talked into showing her... I have known so many pet and show breeders in 35 yrs...but never saw a Parti color until a friend bought a German Biewer...doesn't mean no one ever had them... I wish you the best... |

"I agree to uphold the principles of the Club’s Constitution, Bylaws, Code of Ethics and Code of Conduct and will protect the interests of the Yorkshire Terrier in a manner reflecting credit to myself, the Breed, and the Club. Would it be ethical and honest for me to join, agreeing to the terms above, yet knowing that I am breeding off standard colors? My word is my honor and I can't agree to terms that I am unable to abide by. It should be the same for any YTCA exhibitor or breeder - off color or not off color - as well as the balance of the terms listed on the website, that the club states you are agreeing to by joining. So us parti breeders are dammed if we do join and dammed if we don't. |
Quote:
and you are right anyone who has requested to join and has been accepted should be prepared to stand, uphold and abide by the bylaws, code of ethics and conduct. If membership is taken seriously it is a big responsibility....and remember everything that is voted on must be passed by a majority 2/3 vote I'm sure that you'd feel that way if and when your goals are accomplished and a National Breed Club were established. |

Funny how alot of people on this post want to bash the YTCA. If it werent for the YTCA, the Yorkie wouldnt be what it is today. Its the people that dont breed to the standard that have caused the most problems to the Yorkie and how it is represented and perceived. Most of the show breeders/ dedicated hobby breeders are breeding for the purpose of improving the breed and staying within the standards set by the YTCA. It has been the onslot of byb's, mills and people breeding only for the $$$$$$$$$ that have ruined this breed and are breeding dogs that dont even look like a Yorkie. |
Quote:
I wonder if any member of the YTCA has ever read the book "who Moved my Cheese?" ? It is a Great book and who Knows it may help ;) what do ya think? |
Quote:
I think that would be a wonderful book for some of them to read! :) Tammy |
