JoJo's sire is Ch. Heavenly's Father Abraham and he has 19 total champions in 4 gen (I think it's 4 gen) JoJo's Dam's SIRE is Exmoor's Exuberant and has 41 total champions 4 gen. So, the champions start as early as the grandparents. I found a few pictures of Exmoor's Exuberant and Father Abraham - I'm sure you've seen them already, but it fills me with pride everytime I see them. I've got stars in my eyes.

| From what I understand, you are looking only 3 generations back, as that is where all the genetics come from. Mary?

| Remember show dogs are born but, you have to able to bring out that Champion in them. They must have that not afraid of the devil, outgoing attitude. If you don't have that, you could have the most beautifully structured dog in the world and if you have to drag it around the ring, with it tucking it's croup....doesn't make for a pretty picture.

One also has to consider if the dog comes from a long line of unbroken Champions on both sides from strong pedigrees.

It's very important that a breeder knows how to continue on how to breed those lines correctly to continue breeding great dogs.

If you decide to show, have fun. But, keep in mind the AKC definition of why we show "To Gain Approval of Our Breeding Stock". So, if you decide to breed, not only is the temperament and a good representation of the breed is important. But, first and foremost is the health....so, don't forget about the required testing.

The eye shine idea has worked 100% for me with all of my yorkies. If someone says their dog does not match the eye shine concept, it is usually due to camera distortion or them not understanding what true silky and cottony coats are all about. These are actually genetically-linked characteristics -- that explains why this is so -- it is no wives' tale but actual science.

Showing is costly; There is of course the cost of the dog, tests run on the dog, Equipment, traveling expenses. I suggest that while you are attending shows that you search for your mentor. One that is well versed in everything yorkie. Someone that has the knowledge and strong love for the breed. This person will guide you through everything; Training, nutrition, presenting a dog, what shows to attend, what classes/seminars to attend, teaching you pedigrees, and much, much more.

| Tucker looks like a sweetie. Obviously the green eye shine does not apply to all dogs and all breeds.
