Champion lines... I'm really interested in seeing some pictures of these breeders' lines. (Pastoral's, Yorkboro, This Time Breeders, Parkside, Stratford, Tayava & Lordean's) I found Durrer's but none for the others. Does anyone know where I can find some? |

Additional champion questions My girls have champions in their bloodlines on dam and sire sides. The breeder gave me their pedigree back to great-great grandparents. I'm registering the girls with AKC and hope to train my Zsa-Zsa in agility but would like to show her as well. I think Eva will be too small - but I'd like to work with her anyway - just in case she does reach 5-6 lbs. Ok - so some questions are: If the champion line goes back to grandparents but parents were never shown in the ring can I still show my Zsa-Zsa? Does the champion line determine dog's ability to show? I've been researching and talking to a breeder/handler in my area but a little intimidated. Any information is appreciated. |

As long as you have open registration rights, yes you can show her. Not Championing the parents doesn't have any affect on your ability to attempt to Champion her. If the breeder was breeding for structure, attitude, health, etc your girl may very well have the "it" factor for the ring. There is a little difference in raising a pet vs raising a show dog...Remember Champions are born, but they have to be molded to succeed. If you really want to do this, don't be intimidated...go for it. But, have your girl evaluated by a handler or judge or a reputable/show breeder. You'll never know if she has it until you get her in the ring. |

Yours may or may not be show quality. If the breeder you bought your dog from doesn't show, they would not likely know what a show dog would look like. As I have expained on this forum, I do show my dogs and hopefully, when I do a breeding that I will get a show dog in the litter. If I have say a litter of three, one may be a great show dog but the other two may be pet quality. All three puppies have the same outstanding pedigree but one is show quality the other two are not. That isn't unusual. The two that are pet quality are sold for pet only spay neuter not to be used for breeding. My show dog will be shown, brought into my breeding program and hopefully will pass on those genes that dog carries to perhaps produce a show puppy 'get' . |
Good Lines, Good Pups ! 4 Attachment(s) All my Yorkies are OZMILLION. My mum to be and the sire both have Ozmillion Crufts Champions in their line, right from great great great grandparents and up to grandparents....pregnant Tammy, "True Bliss Girl" has seven Ozmillion champions, plus another Ozmillion sire in all her generations, and sire Casper, "Cheeky Smiler" has One Ozmillion champion and then onto other Scottish lines and other champs. ("Lass of Loch Rosa" - Tara)Tara's grandfather is Casper's dad ! I only found that out after I bought Casper ! Tammy is unrelated though, but they must be related further back once the Scottish line goes back to the English lines, and Ozmillion. So should get good puppies I would think ! :D PICTURES BELOW..... 1.Tara 2.Tammy(pregnant) 3.Tammy(pregnant) 4.Casper(the sire) Debra:animal-pa |
I won't be showing though ! ;) |

I have two pet yorkies both from Champion Lines.....are they show quality, nope....but I love them dearly and wouldn't take any amount of money for them. |
That's the way I feel about mine....I could go on about their small size or Tara's huge ears, but just look at her, she is gorgeous, (pics above) and I know from good stock. People have told me to show her, but we don't have shows up here, and I couldn't have her fussed over for hours plus all that travel, so I won't be showing no matter what people thought. She is gorgeous as she is, and my others have their own special things about them too, and I don't mind as long as they are happy and healthy. :D ....But it is good to know they are from good enough stock to have been judged as so, even if I wouldn't do it myself. :animal-pa Debra x x x |

I do have Champions though, they are my pets too. I enjoy the showing aspect, not only getting the approval of my lines, but the ability to socialize and meet wonderful people that have a common interest. |

My friend shows Yorkies and does very well with hers. her son is amazing handling in the ring. But I feel like such a dork and I don't want my girls to be judged b/c I'm a dork. Thanks for the advice - I'm just going to have the girls looked over and see what happens. There's a show in MO this month so I'll go - watch, talk to some handlers, breeders and try to learn as much as possible. |

Handlers are GREAT to have when needed. There are certainly situations with any breeder/exibitor when a handler may be the best route for what ever reason. I'm just a little of the opposite...I'm very competitve by nature...my old volley ball coach can vouch...lol I want nothing more than to show my own, win or lose, it's sport to me. It is never personal. I have never felt "bad" when losing...just lights the fire under the ol' bum even more to strive more. I love the sport. Whether I fall flat on my face, atleast it was me there giving it my all...that's the only way for me. Not afraid of proff handlers. I know two personally. They are great people, very helpful but when it comes time to show, they are all business as they should be I suppose. |

The sires father is ozmilion Adoration, their grandparents and great grandparents are all ozmilion champions. How wonderful to see that somone else has the same pedigree in their yorkies as myself.:) |

I'm really not competitive by nature, just enjoy showing my dogs myself. In the beginning I did use a handler, but I traveled with him and my mentor. He taught me everything he could; ins and outs of grooming, training, care and presentation of dog. It wasn't until my mentor was satisfied with what I had learned and allowed me into the ring. After all it was her breeding in the ring and she wanted me to do it right. |
I use to show myself so much better when I was younger. Now that I have returned to showing and doing this myself - I do get very nervous. I guess since I know so much is riding on it. I also had a handler back in the "olde days" and she would take mine to all the away shows. It really helped a lot and she was so good. I will hire a handler this time in the fall. I will show my pups/younger dogs, but when ready will get a handler. I still love going to the shows and have met some very nice people. Now that we have the camper - can hopefully enjoy the shows even more. :D Sweetyblue site is the best site to see the breeders get that you mentioned. T. |
so much good info in here...keep it up...thanks! |
Thanks everyone for all the info. I know that I am not ready to handle my girls - of course they are only 12 weeks old but I think they will do better than I will. :D I'm going to talk to my friend who does handle Yorkies in the ring. See if he'll teach me but also handle at least 1 of the girls. I'll just groom them and learn as much as I can. There is so much to handling - so much to getting the dog to perform well and I'm too new and want my girls to have a true opportunity to strut their stuff. Another question though: at what age do i start really working with them? I comb them twice a day now, I touch their mouths, feet, stomachs, run my hands across their backs and legs. I believe they have to have basic commands down too?? I need to learn how to stack too - any help?? All the advice and suggestions are fantastic - you guys rock!:thumbup: |
Quote:
Don't overwork the coat.....I keep brushing and combing to a minimum, what I do daily is take down the topknot, clean facial furnishings and teeth Stacking is an art and not easily explained, it must be shown. Remember when you're doing the training to always have a lead on them. It does not good to train them off lead. |
Quote:
I will have Bobbie teach me stacking - I love when the babies do this without much guidance. Good point on the lead - will make sure to do this! |

At this young age.....make everything a game.....are they food driven? |
if I'm not mistaken, Lordean's in now heritage hills yorkies. this is an older (80) year old lady who has long since stopped showing and is only breeding now. i have inquired about her puppies and noticed 'formerly Lordean's At the top of the page. or it might have been Loreila. i will check. |
