YTCA never had a problem with these "odd ball colors" (as you call them) because prior to AKC allowing these colors to be registered, people were hiding these colors, giving them away and disposing of them. What motive would an "unscrupulous" breeder have to come into the picture and purposely breed a yorkie to some parti colored dog to produce lines that will produce "parti colored yorkies" in the future, prior to AKC even allowing this future color to be eligible for registration?
If YTCA is worried that unscrupulous breeders will take morkies and breed them together to produce parti look a likes and sell them as the real thing, than require everyone who raises off colored yorkies to have their dogs DNA'd to prove parentage? That will solve one problem?
While I can see the reasons for not purposely breeding T-cups, due to increased health issues, hypoglycemia, broken bones ..., there are no increases in health issues with partis and other off colored yorkies (except blue), than there are with standard colored yorkies so I don't see where the problem lies - other than the color. And as we've discussed in previous threads, only some off colors are chastised by the YTCA while other off colors are not???
