I can't help you on the Party Yorkies, but the Biewers Standard is the same "size" standard as the Yorkies.. up to 7 lbs. However, in my opinion, there does seem to be some consistency issues in regards to the size that we are working on. The german breeders may not have seen it as an issue or liked having somewhat larger dogs in some cases. So, I think you are correct in noticing that some of the dogs are larger than what your used to seeing... especially in the show ring. We are trying to breed to standard and out of my 8 Biewers, so far the largest is just over 6.5 lbs. The real trick seems to be getting a female that's gets large enough to keep for breeding.
