Picture three is Connor... (I do not breed him. Not AKC standard color. But I love the way he looks.)
Picture one and two is Kera... (I would consider breeding her, but with no registration and pet quality only. At a much reduced price. I do not believe in inflating prices for these pups.) I have friends who would love to have a 'gold'.
There is rumor going around that these 'golds' have color related health issues. According the the Yorkie Doctor for AKC, this is not true and only a rumor. Believe me.. after getting 'love' letters from people, I did my research...LOL. He stated that they are subject to any of the breed's related health issues as any yorkie is, but nothing related to their coloring.
Enjoy the pics! |
Conner is the exact color of one my daughter's yorkies--we love the golden color!
