Actually, its the YTCA that dictates the Yorkie standard, not the AKC.

Is doesn't bother you to alienate a significant part of the community by calling people out for one misspelling? Ostensibly, the hurting others part does not phase you. However, it's hard to believe that it doesn't bother you that pettiness detracts from the beliefs you are expressing and weakens any arguments you put forth? Actually this applies to other posts here too -- believe me, I understand it's not been one-sided and can see why the OP was surprised

At any rate, I imagine this thread may get closed if it continues to devolve. Please stick around-- You have a lot to offer YT and vice versa. I just hope that sharing is done more responsibly in the future.

The problem is, the person that started this asked a question. And, as usual there were some that jumped down her throat. The only problem is, that she was wanting to know if it would ruin her dog, as far as mating with a different kind of dog. But, then the rude comments started, which was wrong. People come on here to ask questions, not to be lashed out at.

Its a loaded question!!!!! Ruin WHAT???? has that even been clarified???? and it HAS been answered. There are many angles to ruin. Its more like you didnt read the answers you expected to hear therefore calling posters rude.

so here. Is this what u and the op should have heard?

Yes its fine to mix breeds it doesnt "ruin" a thing. Its ok to breed 2 pure breds together too, nothing "ruined" He could get stuck in the female, that could "ruin" him, the female could have an STD, that too could "ruin" him. He could have an std may "ruin" her. But I guess discussing the female is offf topic. Sorry. Im am super sorry for trying to inform the OP of what could happen in breeding. Sorry for sharing experiances that have unfolded right before our eyes on this message board. with that being said if you want the question point blank answered, YES IT CAN INFACT "RUIN HIM".

Is that what we were all supposed to say?

Good point. SOMEONE did their homework here. Seems ones telling us to do homework should have spent more time doing their OWN. I hate homework...Ill leave it to you Thank you for the valid point tho

And btw, this is a breeders auction.....the breeders weren't the ones buying the mixes. We rescued one....we don't have near enough foster families for all of them

OMGosh, how sad
