| Parti- Possibly? We have been asked several times if Roxie is a Parti- I dont know much about them and would like more info. Do any of you think she could be? I will attach pics.

| She is quite a pretty doggy! I am by no means a parti expert! But to my untrained eye, I don't think she is. It looks like she just has super light gold on her chest area. And parti's (the ones I have seen) tend to have a LOT of white, especially on the back. I apologize if my info is false!

| I do not want to offend you, but looks more mixed to me than parti. I could be wrong. She's adorable though!

| I agree with Chachi. Parti-carrier . I almost lean toward Parti because it looks like her back legs are all white as well as her chest. She certainly isn't a mix. beautiful girl!!!!!!!! |

| She is beautiful! Not sure about Parti...I am no expert. She is definitely not a mix perhaps the "tail" is what may make her seem mixed. Adorable baby! |

| How old is Roxie? I really don't think she is a parti. She does have light gold but many of my young yorkies have light gold and then as they get older the light gold turns into a darker gold. She is a cutie. Did you see her parents? If her parents looked like a regular yorkie then I would not think she would be a parti carrier. She is a cutie. |

Donating YT 10K Club Member | Personally from your pictures I don't think so. The definitive "proof"....does she have ticking on her body or inside her mouth? That is the true indication if a dog carries the pie bald gene.

| This "ticking" you are speaking of, I would like to know if this is true and if you have a reference? Very interesting! |

Living My Yorkie Dream Donating Member | Curious........what is "ticking"? My guess is skin with spots??

| She is not a parti and there's no way to say if she is a carrier of the parti gene either....unless you bred her to a full parti or if you know that one of her parents were a parti. Typically (but not always), the carriers will have white tipped feet and it is easier to see as babies and I did not see this in her puppy picture...but again, that's not 100%. As for the ticking, this is not always the case either. I have spoken with other parti breeders about this and I was told that the majority of their carriers do not have "ticking". My parti carrier, Huckleberry, does not have it and neither does Livi's carrier baby, S'mores. A parti is a tri-colored Yorkie...like the one in my avatar. Here is the picture of Livi where you can see her coloring better.livi-oct_62C07-1stgroom4.jpg (have to click on it to enlarge). One thing that I do knw for sure is that your fur baby is a cutie-pie!! Last edited by TammyJM; 08-13-2009 at 08:25 AM. |

Donating YT 10K Club Member | Aka freckles. Hundreds of references will come up if you google pie bald gene and ticking and it's usually located within the white sections of their hair. It is not necessarily readily seen. I have two biewers....one's entire tummy is freckled...the other's is not, but you can see them in the parts of his hair on his back.
