I'm just trying to educate people as well. I understand and respect the point of the show breeder but I'm trying open the eyes of all (or even one or two).
If parti is born out of some of the most respected show lines, why should the color of that dog make him any less a yorkie than his full sibling who's blue and tan. Same DNA, same mom and dad.
Same goes for Black and chocolate and golden. I'm especially saddened for the owners of Black coated dogs. Where they were once able to show and win they will now be DQ'd due to the new ruling. |
The DQ only will be applied to any white no longer than an inch on the forechest or any other color on the head and body. Nothing is in the DQ about DQ'ing a black and tan yorkie, even tho in my opinion it shouldn't be shown it's not the standard. This was written to not let Parti's/Briewers to participate in the show ring in the yorkie breed if that is to my understanding. I will not get into a debate about the parti gene as I do not know enough about it to debate about it.
