What article are you referring to? I thought you were claiming that an article stated that Piebald/White Yorkies are not affected by this disorder--are you referring to a different article/point now?

The tan area is not affected because it is TAN. It is not possible to see THIS condition on a standard colored Yorkie--if the Yorkie has this condition, then it is not standard colored--one of the characteristics of the condition is the discoloration of the 'blue' color--a Yorkie would not be standard colored if it's pigmentation was discolored.

There are other disorders though (such as Demodex) that are different altogether than could cause similar results. Maybe that is what you saw?
