i am sorry but there are too many people out there doing this and it makes me very upset. they inflate the cost and call it "rare" when it is a flaw.
any respectable breeder would not do this or attempt this.

this is my opinion and i am sure, the opinion of many others
I guess I don't understand why this upsets people. No one is trying to change the standard. The traditional yorkies will still be there and still hold their place in the dog world. As #2 dog in the US, they are not likely to go away anytime soon.

Breeding the chocolates, or the partis or the goldens, has nothing to do with the standard of the traditional colored yorkies.
