Biewers are NOT acknowledged by the AKC correct? Are they not seen as having a "fault" by their coloring?

I could care less, I still want one, and I don't see any fault in the white color on a yorkie- but what is something is that when you search for a "biewer" they are very expensive in the US (because they are considered "rare" here).... hmm so is a "teacup".

People will charge what people are willing to pay.

I don't agree with, and think it is very sad that people will breed very small dogs to try and get very small puppies.. it is animal cruelity in my eyes. And I am sure that people are disgusted with me for breeding my over 7lb female, because she is above breed standard... but I would bet that those who are disgusted with that will have no problems with those who breed their biewers, even though they are not "breed standard"

I guess when we are all perfect we can then throw stones eh?

Just out of curiosity... was the word "Toy" used to describe a smaller dog before the AKC used the catagory? How did the word "toy" get started?

Before anyone jumps on me, I know that "biewers" are acknowledged in other countries... I was just using them as a reference for people selling puppies for very high prices because they are "rare" and they are not AKC standards.

I hope you were able to find your puppy and that your allergies have not acted up.
