 choc. yorkie
Hi, This is the first time I have posted on the web. I have been reading on the chocolate yorkie. I have been breeding yorkies for some time now and have champion stock. I have just had a litter of yorkies from a Grand Show Champion's son and a 9 champion pedigree female of the Rothby line. The female had 2 puppies and both were Chocolate. For this to happen, something had to happen to the dna. The female was bred artifical and I believe there must have been a reaction to the rubber and or plastic in the breeding. This is not a ressive gene as many think it is. What happens is the color gene is mutated. Fox and mink ranchers call this the cinnimon which in turn has developed many colors from this mutation. Hope this info helps. Wayne |
