| ![]() While that may be true of many, there are some breeders of tri colored Yorkies and Chocolates that are very passionate about breeding and do health testing on their breeding pairs. I've read so many threads on Parti Yorkies on YT, and I have seen so many committed breeders who were really hurt by statements made here. These love "off color" Yorkies and are just as committed as other very reputable breeders and are doing their best to better the Parti Yorkie lines. Like you need to do with any breeder, you need to carefully ask questions. |

| ![]() I realize people think that because they don't want a show quality dog that that is reason enough to purchase from the most convenient breeder they can find but that is far from the truth. If you want a mixed breed then you can find plenty of dogs out there that came about because the owners didn't take care of their responsibility. But purebreds are genetically manipulated creatures that only maintain their characteristics by continued stringent breeding practices. While many here attack show/breeders for changing the standard and quality of some of the breeds there is far more of a problem with people who want to call themselves breeders and yet they have never taken the time to learn the genetic background of the poor souls they breed in order to make some money from the current demand for purebred dogs, in particular small breed dogs. There are still many good breeders out there that do not cave into popular demand for a popular "look" in their breed. Not all judges are crooked and the genetics of purebred breeding never change. Either a breeder is concerned for the well being of the breed or they are not. A good breeder is not going to breed a dog that has faults that are completely against the standard of the breed. That is why good breeders have pet quality pups to sell. A good breeder breeds only those closest to the standard and they sell off those that have faults, hopefully with a spay/neuter contract to prevent those unscrupulous breeders from getting their hands on them. There are plenty of websites out there made up of people who are offering off color Yorkies and selling them as though they were a rare and expensive type of Yorkie. If that is what you want to support then they are certainly available. |

Senior Yorkie Talker | ![]() Every time I have some thing to say you always got something bad to say to what I have to say. Just like I have learn a lot from this website I have learn a lot from that group. In that group they do what they have to do to take care of their Yorkies. All of them is good and some of them has been doing this for years and some is new to it. You don't have to say bad things to every thing I say. I can tell you don't like me.

| ![]() Had I realized this was a hot topic I wouldn't have asked. I didn't want to start a debate just to get some breeders if anyone knew of one. That said, I will say I do agree that you can find a good breeder who really cares about the pups they are breeding even if they are not breed standard. People like different looks and different colors. People who are looking for a pet not a show dog do not care about that stuff. I by no means support puppy mills or greeders producing sick puppies and selling them as healthy. Our Riley is most likely inbred, oversized for the breed and has a caramel eye color that even the vets are amazed by. He is probably as far from show quality as yorkies get but guess what? We don't care! He is an amazing pet, loving, well tempered, healthy and just an all around joy to have. I would not love him any more if he was a top of the line show dog. I love him as he is. Just like we would love any other dog as they are. Also, people who don't care about show quality can also care about not supporting puppy mills or who they buy a puppy from. We do not care about show but we certainty care who we buy from. McDonalds is most convenient way to feed my daughter, but that's not what I feed her. That's why I am asking for people who know of a loving breeder who cares about their pups health. Those of you who answered that thank you so much for your help! I will check out all that you suggested! I will be doing my research and making sure whoever we buy from has a good record, a cleAn facility, well taken care of pups. If we walk away with a Mutt, that's fine! we are looking for a great pet and it's genetics do not make a difference to us. |
