The YTCA site does not give any of this information. They also do not explain how Champion yorkies have produced parti colored off spring.
In one sentence they deny the existence of the parti yorkies, and in another sentence they disqualify the color. Why do they need to disqualify the color if it is not even part of the yorkie makeup?
I feel the people asking questions about the parti colored yorkies deserve to get all of the information that is out there on the subject. One should not stop with just one website.
When you look at all of the information, a preponderance of the evidence shows that it is more likely than not, that the parti gene was part of the original make up of the yorkshire terrier. |
Actually the YTCA doesnt need to justify anything or its standard to the parti breeders. The standard is the standard period. I believe as does the YTCA that a mix was introduced by indescriminate breeders wayyyyyyyy before DNA and kennel inspections. A parti colored mix was registered as a regular Yorkie and no one was the wiser.This is one reason why they will not change the standard. Too many questions and not enough evidence. How in the world would YTCA or AKC even know which lines were the "real thing"(if there is one) or which lines were a mix? Its hard enough with the standard colored Yorkies being produced by bybers. Lots of falsifying papers there also. So now that AKC damaged the breed by registering the off colored Yorkies, the YTCA had no choice but to disqualify the off colors. YtCa has never believed these parti colors existed but now have to include the disqualification in the standard.
