The Nikkos line of parti's have been producing for 10 years and there are at least 4 and 5 generations of parti's, looking through my pedigrees. I only have 3 generations of parti color, on my outcross line. At this time, I've heard of no parti, chocolate or golden line having any health problems or being at greater risk of health problems, than what we see in the traditional colored yorkies.
