What’s the difference between AKC vs. RBDA? Yorkie Terrier VS American Hairless Terrier? 

What is all the hoopla about? What is this about having our dogs association to a club? Numerous pet owners do not even belong to a club. Dog owners, who take pride in their pets, will generally register their dogs in some kind of kennel club, specifically if they plan to breed their dog. Registered dogs tend to cost a little more and are more appealing to dog buyers. The first stands for American Kennel Club.

The other stands for the Rare Breed Dog Association. These are dogs that the other assoc. does not recognized. The Yorkie? Yep, sure they recognize those sweeties. Seems a bit silly really. I mean come on... the dang thing is sitting right there in front of your face, are you going to tell me it's not a dog? And if you see 20 of the same types of dogs, all looking like they came from the same mom and dad, are you now going to tell me that they are not a true breed?

Ah well, that is the case. Hey, I love Yorkie terriers. They are so adorable and cute and wonderful little dogs. Yep, they are of the A K C type. But there are other terrier breeds that are not. :( They are considered rare because well, they are not just yet all that common.

Make sense?

Oh well. Hey, those hairless terriers all look the same to me, but well, the other group just isn't ready to accept that yet.

But you're probably here because you adore the Yorkie terrier as much as I do. :)

Anyway, that's the difference. So, whether you have an A "OK" C registered Yorkshire terrier, or as I like to call them, Yorkie, I'm sure you love them all the same.
