Hi there is a lot of information out there about Biewers, but you have to look. There are 4 different Biewer clubs that have been started in the US. They all have different opinions about how to breed, where to register, and even the standards. A Biewer should be registered with a German club, don't let these other clubs tell you otherwise. Unfortunately Biewertalk is not very active. There are also other forums out there that are active, but there is much back bitting and lies being thrown around on them. (just as there can be with any group of people) Many of us have decided to not be with these clubs and the forums that are always fighting. There are many Biewers now being breed in the US. Jenn had a litter earlier (don't know if she ever got her girl sold). I have two litters (4 weeks and less than a day!) I think Scrapindee, also a YTer, has a litter of puppies that is 5 weeks old (maybe 6??) ksbiewers and I have sold some of our dogs as pets to YT members.
In general, the Biewers seem less hyper and yappy than the traditional yorkie. The size standard is the same, but just like with the standards you get some that are smaller and some larger. The hair is the same as the standard yorkie, with silk being preferred, but there is also cotton coats as well. My Biewers are very people oriented. They love being with us and definitely have one person they like the best. Make sure you ask lots of questions whether you go with a Biewer or a standard yorkie.
Good Luck! |
