With that said (written...lol!), I repeat....I do not agree that the parti color is a fault, it is genetics! It is only a fault to those that adhere to what a group tells them is so. I really do get what you are saying, I do,but genetics should not be written off so easily. If YTCA loves the breed as much as they proclaim, then why deny the true beginning of this breed and justify it as, "bettering the breed"?

Hi Tammy,
I respect your opinion
I also believe in genetics and the overall health and structure of the breed and with that comes the over all standard of the Yorkshire Terrier and yes over time the standard changes as does everything else. Funny thing is I don't believe in evolution as a whole but seems to me the more I think about it the more things evolve and the standard does evolve to improve the breed. I see no problem with the Parti's becoming a seperate breed. We wouldn't have any breeds just plain ole mutts if someone wasn't there or a group of people setting a standard. Whether or not we agree or disagree it takes time to get to where we want or the breed to get whether it be the yorkie or a parti or brewer of even a pug, maltese ect... You have to start somewhere but since I do show and a parti color is a fault and now a disqualification in the ring I can't support the fault not to say I don't support the breeders if done the way it's suppose to. I do not like that people just breed for tinies and get outrageous prices on the yorkie and yes I will give my opinion on that as well LOL so with that said I hope now we both have a good understanding and can just agree to disagree
Donna P.S. I hope that made sense it's late LOL
