They are hindering the parti breeders because they know that it will be very difficult to start a breed club of our own without their blessing.
These parti coloreds are yorkies and denying that fact is not going to change it. I don't care what they want to call them, a rose by any other name is still a rose. The color is part of the genetic make up, that cannot be changed.
Being passionate about the breed and keeping the standards the same is fine, but what would it hurt to put them into a separate class.
As has been reiterated on here over and over again that the breed is being "ruined", then it just seems to me that it would behove the YTCA to accept these other colors and set standards for them in order to retain their control.
Disallowing them is not going to stop people from breeding them.
