| Im glad they have slipped but doubt there will be any less breeders breeding for them due to the ranking. The economy and their ability to sell them have a bigger baring.

| Shame there are "Lists" at all, I choose my boy because I loved him, I first looked up about Yorkie care, health and traits etc to see if it was a breed I could look after and then looked for the puppy from a good breeder. I would never buy a dog because it was on a list of popular dog breeds.

It's bound to happen with a lot of breeds. TV shows, movies, etc, definitely don't help the matter. Like said above, sooo many kids (including ME) wanted a Dalmatian after seeing the movie. I'm so glad my parents never caved, but a lot did! Celebrities toting around Chihuahua's and Yorkies in their purses also made people want them. Golden Retrievers became big after being featured in movies like Air Bud. JRT's become more popular after Fraiser... sooo many people went out and got a JRT not knowing what to expect at ALL!

Donating YT Addict | It is horrible that people breed them just for the more money because of the # of popularity. I hope they get off the top 10 sooner rather than later. I LOVE Yorkies, dont get me wrong. But some people cant handle this breed only certain people can. But I wouldnt trade my Yorkie for the world.
