Hi
I didnt see an Intro forum but I a new here and will get my first ever Yorkie this weekend. While I wanted the typical Steel Blue and Tan I am getting one from a very reputable breeder whose litter had one Black and tan with some blue among the black. I find him gorgeous with a dash of white also. Which is exactly the color markings I wanted as he will only be a Pet to a loving home. I dont care to breed or show. He is lovely to me. I was just wondering what is the big thing about the color if you are not showing. I honestly think the darker shades are prettier than those light silver colors. While I also know the AKC standards, I dont care for them. Sometimes the AKC penalizes really beautiful dogs for the slightest of reasons. This dog is coming from a history of Champions in his pedigree and t me he is just wonderful. I am getting him at 3.8 months old because I didnt want an infant dog and really wanted the lady to keep him until now which she did. I would rather not disclose the breeder's name please.
