Some people only breed Biewer to Biewer. Some still integrate Yorkies (on rare occasions) back into the breed to add back into the color. When a Biewer is bred to a standard colored Yorkie, the litter is referred to as a 'splitter litter'--some may be standard colored, some may have the tri-Biewer coloring. A standard colored offspring is referred to as a 'splitter'--if bred to a standard Yorkie, will produce standard colored offspring, when bred to a Biewer, will create Biewer offspring. (But of course, the theory that the dogs are not the result of Yorkies afterall further complicates that, I suppose.)

I *think* I got that right.
I think we'd better make room for more in our State.

In the parti world, we call them carriers.
