CKC papers came with mine. I have any info on the difference of AKC or CKC. But I have learned alot on here. Bella is a floppy eared yorkie, but since I have learned she is probably a silkie. I guess it doesn't matter as long as you love them and they are part of the family. She's a yorkie to me. |
i know some people might disagree with me but i think a dog is a dog is a dog.. we all have something on common here, we love a particular breed (yorkies). why does it matter what a piece of paper says? if you love you dog and take good care of your dog, nothing else matters. its a companion, not a show of wealth. |
Shelby is CKC and Maddy is AKC, but none that matters to us. I agree that having healthly pups that are loved to death is most important:) |
My Dudley came from a great line of breeders and papers (AKC).. Like mickey said, the paper aren't worth a dime if they are "fixed", what mattered to me was the homelife, parents and the breeder:D No particuliar order either:D TO THE OP....your pups are too cute! |
Amanda, I am so glad you got this out. I understand completely what you are saying. Poor little Stewie is AKC reg. and totally precious, but definitely not the prettiest yorkie. (I love you Stewie!!) And just like the other day when we were looking and I fell in love with that puppy. Yes it was AKC, and from the breeder's website, YES it was a puppymill. I have gotten a puppy from you and I have spent time in your home, and I know that you absolutely adore your dogs and they are spoiled rotten. Like some of the others have said. First and foremost should be the breeder and the care they give, not what they register with. And I for one, KNOW you are a wonderful breeder. (I really shouldn't have posted such a loving response after what you posted on my thread!! :tongue4: Still gotta love ya though. :D) |
I am sorry you have been made to feel this way, Amanda...{{hugs}} I have Shay, he is adorable and AKC...I have Bella whom is simply adorable too, she is CKC....do I love Shay more? NOPPERS I love em both equally the same...to tell the truth I am Gaga over them! But there is that stigma out there, when you say CKC and ppl go OOOO...like it is a disease... I am not showing my babies, or breeding them, they are my babies...I wanted Yorkies and thats what I have... Your babies are adorable!!!!!!!!!!! |

wow I am touched just reading your article I can tell you love your animals more than anything in the world and that equals a excellent breeder in my book |
As with people also, we can't all be show dogs! LOL! I too would not hesitate to buy a baby from you! Also, I feel like a healthy dog is what we all want in the end and just because a piece of paper says AKC,CKC or ABC does not a healthy pet make! Of course this a forum called YorkieTalk so I do understand the opinions of the hardcore yorkie yakers i think there is room for everyone who have love for these elegant little pets. Also not everyone can afford the creme de la creme! Give me a healthy sturdy fur ball any day! My Mabel came with AKC registration papers but I will not send them in...no point in it since she will be spayed. Don't let folks get you down! |
I would buy from you as well, you had me at 'guaratee' if you can stand behind what you say, it means you tried your best. Healthy and happy, that's what I would want. Plus the package...the cherry on top :thumbup: |
WELL SAID AMANDA!!!!:thumbs up:thumbs up:thumbs up:bravo: Those 3 little letters (AKC) are NO guarantee or indication that their dog is in any way better, purer bred or truer to standard than yours are. My Callie is CKC and just exactly what I went looking for in a Yorkie. People who think they are getting less of a puppy when getting a CKC are really uneducated about what that really means. Your babies are beautiful!!!!!! I'm so glad you got that out in the open for all of us CKC's~:D!!!!!!!!!! |
Amanda I hear ya. I am afraid to tell people Jenna is ckc because I don't want to be looked down on. Mine are AKC except Jenna. Jenna is a beautiful yorkie and the queen of the house. She has the best personality of them all. My Dad bought her mom for me a few years ago. When she got killed the pups were little and I kept Jenna. Jenna is now going to have CKC puppies of her own in about 3 weeks. The male I used was AKC and all I had to do was send a copy of pedigree before they would register him. I do know people the register by photo. Sometimes I wish AKC wouldn't registered without a photo of the parents, pup and dna. I have had people want me to stud out my boy to their AKC dog and they look like mix breeds. I just tell them I don't do it. |
No one comes up to you and says "what a cute dog, is she AKC?" |
I think I'm in love with that sweet Mickey !!! All of your dogs are beautiful. Regarding the AKC vs CKC vs unregistered.......... I have Annie, who is AKC registered. She is my angel, had a 6 lb mom and a 4 lb daddy. I know the breeder, even met the 4 lb. grandma, but Annie grew to be 14 lbs at 5 years old. She is healthy, happy, loving and full of energy. I didn't intend to breed her (I would want to keep all the puppies), and I wouldn't trade her for any other "standard" Yorkie....so AKC doesn't mean all that much if someone just wants a dog with a great personality and temperment. I think the guidelines were intended to keep the breed pure and within standard, but sometimes nature goes outside the guidelines. I do feel that there is too much snobbery when it comes to whether a beautiful Yorkie is AKC or CKC or whatever, but I guess that's just human nature. |
Papers & Perspective Our 1st 2 Yorkies were AKC ... I did the whole registration thing. Roxy ended up being over 10 lbs, had pancreatitis (sp?), had to have two insulin shots per day, and died at a fairly young age ... while, by the way, DH was having a liver transplant. Daisy had auto-immune problems that caused horrible skin conditions that required constant antibiotics. She did not live to be that old either. She passed last Thanksgiving. For Christmas I decided it would be good for the mental health and well-being of myself and my husband to get new puppies. So, 2 days after Christmas I got Mojo (3 mo) and Bella (4-1/2 mo). They have CKC papers, but here's the deal: I doubt I'll even file them ... it's not what's important to us. The only important thing this time around is to have lots of fun and love, be consistent with the obedience and training to give them the ultimate security, and do what we have to with the health issues if/when they come up. Bella and Mojo have added so much love to our lives - we are once again, a happy and healthy family. We don't need no stinkin' papers. :aimeeyork:aimeeyork |
