Horses prance, a Yorkie gait should look like it is gliding on glass..a world of difference. What shows may I ask did you see Yorkies who looked like "abused circus dogs forece to perform"...I have seen them act up and refuse to show well..they do have a mind of their own...and you chalk it up to a bad day, it is a part of what happens...but I have yet to see an exhabitor "force" a champship on any Yorkie...they are strong willed and if they do not like to show, pack it in. | |

I'm perplexed by the number of breeders who don't like showing for one reason or another, or they don't hold it in high regard, yet they are proud of the champions in their breeding dogs' pedigrees.

| What a good point! I have heard non showing breeders say how crooked the show world is, political, blah, blah, blah yet brag on the champions in their pedigrees. Hypocrites! Champion your own dogs, I say and then be proud. Don't take credit for the work others. |

You can have a dog with near perfect structure and coat but if the dog does not carry it's tail up and show a little attitude in the ring then it will be very difficult to finish.

My new handler for Razz, I told her verbally about his pace ideal, yet in the first couple of shows, she paced him incorrectly, so he was pulling at the lead, acting up, doing all sorts of yucky things. I showed her the videos. Then we went to a private place, and I said watch, and I brought him around the ring, and down and back. I said this dog has a huge reach and drive, and you must extend your legs to meet that. Point was made, and then she practised with him in the ring. And she said "gail' wow just wow: that boy can really really move out. Uh huh, but he can still be fractious, and is certainly stubborn. But he will almost "always" want to move and move "fast". That is his natural speed. My Magic has a different speed. Slower than Razz even though he is 3x his size, but at that speed, with all things being right in the world, he will show an extended trot. Truly the extended trot is floating in the ring, and if you see a 120 or so pound dog do this, it is breathtaking. There is a ground covering/eating stride, the head is held steady, the topline steady, it is truely poetry in motion. There is a firm very firm footfall, that elastically releases from the ground, and they literally devour the ground beneath them.

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | I think the OP wanted an answer to her question and not page after page about why she should not breed. Assumptions are made about people with ONE question they ask. These threads always end up the same....Breeders hate on other Breeders, Breeders who dont think you have to show, Breeders that think anyone who breeds yorkies and doesnt show is a piece of crap. Rescue people jumping in to add their touch. Blah Blah Blah. All the same.....every thread.....ends up the same way. People like me are not suprised, but the newbies are caught off guard and they dont know how to handle it. It is true, a nicer approach would be nice. People might stick around. I understand everyone has their passion, but some people really need grace around here. The excuse that this is a forum and people have their opinions doesnt cut it because there are much nicer places on the internet. With that being said, I have met some great people and that is why I choose to stick around. So, I really hope the OP comes back. Last edited by BaxtersMommy; 01-16-2011 at 10:46 AM. |

Poor movement does win a lot, imo in a whole lot of breeds, not just Yorkies. I guess as a structure kind of gal, movement is a huge key to proper structure, quite simply if the structure isn't there, so the movement will not be there. Then you in the YOrkie breed add on color and coat, in my breed, color, coat, head, bite, height, and weight.

This person got answers to her questions, and yet, and yet, came back to prick and prod those responses on a number of different facets. I wonder why, this is an out of character response for a relative newbie.

| I really havent replied on this thread but have been reading it. The OP seemed very combative and not open to the answers given over and over

I don't think she was upset because she didnt get the answer she was wanting. She is upset because for the most part she didn't get any answers. Only a couple of people actually answered her question. JMHO put if you don't have the answer to the questions stay off the thread. Anyone one who has been on YT for any length of time at all knows which comments are going to start an argument. So why even go there unless your sole purpose is to start an argument. And if that is the case, start your own thread. Comments such as get a rescue, or have her spayed, or only people who are interested in money, so on and so forth, did not answer her question. | |
