Due to unscrupulous breeders advertising parti-colored Yorkshire Terriers, our members voted unanimously at our annual meeting to add a disqualification for these and other off colored dogs.

I think the YTCA frowns on any breeder breeding for money. YTCA members are forbidden to advertise, and they are forbidden from using certain words when describing their dogs. If this is a for-profit enterprise, many people think a breeder will take shortcuts to make that profit. YTCA members believe breeding should be done for one reason only – to improve the breed. If someone is charging more for a "rare" yorkie than what a premium example of the breed would cost, it raises suspicions of the true motives of the breeder, as it should.
