I am not trying to start an argument but there is absolutely no proof that chocolates or reds are unhealthy like blue borns!! There are several several people who have chocolates and reds and they are just healthy as a regular yorkie. Only the color is a mutation and it has not caused any health problems. Look at even parti yorkies, their color is a mutation in the genes but it does not make them unhealthy, they are just as healthy as any regular yorkshire terrier.
Sorry I beg to differ and do not want to start an argument either,makes me so mad when all on here freak out and oh no oh no it is a blue OMG.
I know of 19 blue babies as of today and only 1 has had health problems and that is with her skin,sunburn then that gets infected.
I know of 2 reds with health problems off and on and I know of 1 chocolate that is very ill all the time.
So it cannot be said they do not have health problems for they do.
I do know all born blue babies usually do not make it past weaning.
Those born silver grey or whatever color you call it and those that have tan markings and those with white,shed thier coats and turn standard color.
So they cannot be considerd true blues.
And there is proof they have health problems for I know of 3 dogs that have problems,2 reds and 1 chocolate,and only 1 blue ummmmm so I would say same odds there.
Healthy yorkies ummmmmm look in the sick section, lots of health problems there and they are standard.How does one explain that? ALL yorkie can have health problems black ones gray ones silver ones red ones chocolate ones etc...... Just more people talk about the off colors and are looked into more for they are rare colors! But yorkies non the less. |
