I wouldn't be opposed though to the Partis becoming their own breed like the Biewers or even becoming American-bred Biewers or something. I just hate to see the Yorkshire Terrier deviate from the traditional colors. I think those that are passionate about the alternate colors should work to make them their own breed if they want them recognized. I just don't see the YTCA ever allowing Partis or other colors to be shown.
So if there was a litter that happened to have one parti and one with traditional color, should they both be spayed/neutered....even if the tradtional appeared to have potential of "show quality"?

I can understand and even respect your opinion when you say, "I wouldn't be opposed though to the Partis becoming their own breed like the Biewers or even becoming American-bred Biewers or something.

I personally do not feel that we should have to do this. They are a Yorkshire Terrier by genetics, so why should we make up some new breed name and call them something that they are not? Even if you don't like their tri-color, that doesn't make them any less Yorkie.
