Again, that depends on who you ask. There are some Biewer advocates who have had new testing done on their dogs that prvoe there IS something else in the mix, and some who stand by the claims of the breed's originators that they decended from only standard Yorkies. The origins or genetic makeup of Biewers are not exactly universally agreed upon at this point.
