I guess I just get defensive about Livi because there are those that have said that partis are "ruining the breed". I look at her in awe because she is breathtaking....absolutely stunning in person! Yes,I know,I am biased in my opinion because she's mine. | |

| When a show breeder breeds they are lucky to get one show dog out of two or three litters to possibly show and the others are sold as pets to be neutered. I love our breed and it is beginning to look like something that I can't even recognize anymore and I feel education is the answer. There are many ways to make a living but when you a dealing with a living animal I think you owe them more than if you were selling a used car. That's all for me. Good Night.

| MyFairLacy isnt saying that they HAVE to be shown. But if you plan to breed, they need to be show quality. ALL yorkies make great pets, but some just shouldnt be bred. And yes, its b/c they dont fit the standard, no matter how cute. Only the best yorkies should be bred, thats the only way to better the breed. And I 100% agree. And in my opinion, any breeder who loves and is dedicated to the breed, would write in the contract that the puppy MUST be spayed/nuetered (for any puppy that they KNOW will not be show quality.)

| Yes it is. I was just getting ready to tell you I like your avatar picture. I do apologize if I got rude or to blunt with you. I just took things way to personal. I felt like a mom with her daggers out and my babies were under attack.

| I think we all have to remember that all of our babies are adorable! No one is personally talking about anyone's dog not being cute and the best pet out there. It's just that when talking about breeding and all we have to talk about quality in general. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my baby but I know she's not show quality

| [QUOTEWhen a show breeder breeds they are lucky to get one show dog out of two or three litters to possibly show and the others are sold as pets to be neutered.][/QUOTE] First of all I want to say I agree with this 100%. I am probably going to open a whole can of worms with this but this is what I mean when I said breeders are in between a rock and a hard place. I hear all about bettering the breed and I understand it BUT if show breeders are the only ones to breed yorkies and they spay and neuter all of the dogs that they dont keep for their own, then how are they possibly bettering the breed with their spayed and neutered progeny? |
