Ruben, SO VERY SORRY to hear of the one who passed over,you WERE BLESSED with a beautiful Parti-Yorkie puppy,while it is true somewhere in the background of the sire or the dam, there was this gene,you may never know
where it popped in.
All too many breeders will not acknowledge they HAD one or more parti puppies in THEIR LITTER,rather than feel blessed they had healthy puppies, they focus on the "woops"some place them without papers,(big secret you see) or some (HEAVEN FORBID,WHICH I THINK IS HORRIBLE) WILL destroy them...to KEEP their secret.
Other times,as was mentioned,breeders will just not list the correct color so it will not show up on the pedigree as a other than normal Yorkie color...sorry but I found this to be true....BUT NO MATTER!
You were blessed with this "special" little fur kid,it might happen with a following litter or you may never see this pop up again in any further litters that are whelped..sometimes...it is a once in a lifetime "gift."
There is no mistake,you DO have a wonderful,little parti-pupper,CONGRATS
and I wish the remaining puppers health...I hope the ma dogger is also doing well. Jan |
