| Hi! I've never heard of her but her website states that she's listed with YTCA - but I didn't see it. Mardelin (Mary) might be able to tell you more - she lives in CA and is a member of YTCA. Oh, and maybe you should post this in the breeder review section, too. Here's the link.... Yorkshire Terriers - Yorkie Puppies - Breeder Information - Training - San Diego

| Well I thought the YTCA required testing to be done on the sire and dam? This was on this ladies website.... "I do not do genetic testing. A lot of thought and careful selection go into my decision to breed any two dogs. Looking at pedigrees, inquiring about the reputation and background of a stud dog,using only the healthiest parents are the best way to ensure that the resulting puppies will live a long and healthy life. For this reason, in my ten years of breeding Yorkies, I have never experienced a single genetic or congenital defect." |

Terry is YTCA. I don't know her personally. I've visted her website and all looks together. She has stated that she has just begun showing, but I've yet to have encounter her. But, then I'm pretty new to showing in California. My suggestion is phone her (reputable breeders hate e-mail, they want to hear your voice before they begin answering and asking questions). Begin the initial interview process that may lead up to a meet and great.

| How is not testing parents great??? I AKC also recommends testing sires and dams prior to breeding for OFA (hips, knees) and CERF and suggests BAT also. So for the breeder listed (Daisy Hill) being YTCA member and an AKC breeder and exhibitor...would it not stand to reason that they test their breeding stock? 4) All stud dogs and bitches shall be screened prior to breeding for both infectious and hereditary diseases using the then generally accepted and available techniques. " So could someone please explain how this person maintains YTCA membership? |

| i was saying i think it is great that Yorkielady06 genetically tests her line of yorkies as the next time i get a yorkie if i do after all the health issues i have dealt with it will be from a breeder who genetically tests their line as i want to avoid as many health issues as I possibly can most importantly immune compromised dogs from inbred lines hope that is more clear and sorry to be confusing no i was saying that is GREAT that YOU test not that the other person does NOT test |

I love this breed too as i grew up with shih tzus and no health issues at all so this is all nuts for me and my parents are scratching there head as they have a silky terrier that is super healthy and they are in shock at all i have been through with these yorks - just not fair to these dogs and people need to start doing the right thing as not all owners have deep pockets to care for these little guys Last edited by dwerten; 03-14-2010 at 02:13 PM. | |

| Oh ok I was confused to say the least I have a complete hysterectomy 2 weeks ago so its the lack of hormones...lol. So how can a member of YTCA have that on her website and yet still be a YTCA member? I know I spend lots on testing. Had awesome unrelated dogs that ended up spayed/neutered prior to breeding due to test results. I stand behind that on my breedings. Does it mean I won't have a LS pup? No, but I sure do what I can to avoid it. My first Yorkie was a LS pup from a breeder that did show and I thought that meant everything 10 years ago....boy have I learned alot. There are good breeders and bad breeders. There are good show people and bad ones too...I got the bad on both ends and decided to not be a bad one Sorry again to confuse ya.. |

I could be wrong but it appears that it a typo. It doesn't make sense to say that followed by the rest of the things noted. Lets not get carried away by words. She's not new. She's always had a good reputation. As I said just yesterday most reputable breeders don't have websites. Who has time? This is one good reason. Health testing is not required for membership. People need to do their homework. | |
