| Biewer Help Please! I have been doing some research on Biewers and would love to get one a little later down the line. I ran across this ad and this pup doesn't look alot different than Harley. Most of the pups I have seen are almost all white with just a little black. Could someone tell me if they think this is legit or misrepresentation?

| I can't say for sure, but I would think this may be a splitter pup (one parent yorkie, one parent Biewer). Here is a link to the Biewer standard. Standard Just thought I would share my baby Darbee with you

| Yes, I have to agree. That is really cheap for a Biewer!

| The standard for coloring is: "Coloring of the coat of the trunk and the head piece are as follows: Rather white or blue-white broken or closely blue absolute, or black, without brown coloring. Hair on the breast, pure white on the belly, and the legs. The head with white-blue-gold, symmetrical colored." There are lots of great Biewer sites if you need more information.

| I would run the other way IF that is a splitter, most reputable breeders that have splitters, are very very careful where they end up, and don't put them out there with breeding rights. There are many good responsible Biewer breeders in the USA now. I would suggest doing a google search on Biewer breeders, and then talk to them and go see them if possible.

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | My webmaster has updated my site with lots of new Biewer pictures and my trip to Germany. No splitters. A biewer is supposed to have 4 white lets and at least the tip of the tail. |

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | i agree that a true biewer will look like one and meet the color standards. but my splitter is registered as a biewer and does not meet the color standards.. so there are lots of people probably selling biewers that are actually splitters...kathy has nice looking biewers that meet standards but there is no other choice on the registry.. either biewer yorkie or yorkie...splitter is not a choice..

I agree there are lots of reputable biewer breeders out there with websites.
