No other off colors have been accepted.

So if you breed two traditional colored yorkies that are AKC registered and produce a chocolate or a golden, you cannot register them because there is no color number to give them.

So the statement that you made saying that they are eligible if their parents are eligible is not completely correct.

So unlike other off colors, Parti colored yarkies are not just eligible, they are accepted and registered by the AKC.
Were these puppies only DNA'd against the parents to see if, in fact, these were the parents of the puppies?
