I read the "information" on the link that you posted. I found it interesting that the writer was vague about the details pulled from "The Stockkeeper in 1887." She states, "Swift's Old Crab, a Scotch Terrier, Kershaw's Kitty, a Skye, and an Old English Terrier bitch of the black and tan saddle."

According to the actual publication "The Stockkeeper in 1887," it was stated that these dogs had no pedigree, and that Swift's Old Crab was a "cross bred Scotch Terrier." This all leads back to my theory that who knows and can guarantee, WHAT genes are in our yorkies.
