I do not think they lied to you. Just to clarify....YTCA members are very, very cautious about placing their dogs with unlimited registration....and most likely it will be with someone that they've known and gained their trust....And the majority breed maybe 1 or 2 litters a year, for themselves, for that next Champion to add to their breeding program. The rest they'll place in approved homes on a spay/nueter contract., or they are spayed or nuetered prior to leaving the breeders home.

it was the most frustrating thing in the world to try and find a quality yorkie. i was at my wits end. i totally agree with the limited reg and trying to protect their breeding line. believe me, on my search for a yorkie.....i finally realized the overbreeding of them, my gosh....they are everywhere and everyone is doing it. it was very sad to see. i may not be in a show ring but i do want a beauty, quality, and intelligence. after speaking to some ytca members, who told me it was the code of ytca members to have limited reg, that i can respect why they do this. i totally agree and believe what you say. this is all a leaning experience for me. thanks so much.

I understand your frustration, don't give up. The only thing to remember, is you are going about your search in the correct manner, however, since many YTCA breeder/exhibitors only breed 1 or 2 litters a year, they do have a very long waiting list and you may not be able to get that yorkie as quickly as you'd like.

This is part of the code: Purchasers will be required to nueter/spay all puppies sold as pets.

[YorkieRose]

Members of the National or regional clubs are encouraged to place all pets with limited regs..and spay/neuter contracts. Show/breed potentials are left to the breeder to decide who they will trust. Unless, you actually spent time with breeders, allowing them to get to know you and your goals, you will find most say no..and with good reason. You may know you are ethical, but you only had to read these forums to see what some breeders call ethical, fair and honest...

Who told you this? I am a member of the YTCA and there is no such rule that I am aware of, and I am listed as a breeder. I am very particular who I sell to.

It comes down to getting to know people...takes time.
30 years ago I went up to Johnny Robinson (Trivar) at a show.. he was the YTCA president at the time among other things...I told him I wanted to buy a show quality male and female...he was polite, Morris was not, told he to get out of his way...but I got to know Johnny and with time he sold me stud service and several nice dogs..
I thought buying a dog was no different then going into a car dealership and picking out a new car.."roll em out guys and show me what you got"..LOL

how do you get to know them if they are not in your area. they probably have everyone in world trying to get to them, that is probably why i felt so pushed aside

i can tell you this much about ckc....kirby was studding a female who was ckc, he is akc, she wanted her puppies to be registered so i contacted ckc. they had no problems registering him w no information at all. so w ckc, you don't have the background information and also, what if he was not a purebred?????....w ckc you don't know if they are a purebred or not. they don't ck. now akc will NEVER register a dog w/o both parents already being registered.

I bought one from CC5star when I was visiting the US, it took me a fortune to bring him back. My puppy is in great health but he is a bit too big than I expected. He is 4 months and one week old, weigh 3 pounds 8 oz, but he is already 9" long (back) and 8" in height, she told me that her pups stop growing early, and the bone structure is not going to be any bigger, I wonder if this is true after reading all the chats here. I should have registered earlier before I bought one back! Could any one could tell me that if my puppy is going to be over sized? Thanks very much!

I think your puppy still has some growth spurts to go through.
