I dont suppose, since you are the parti guru, you can tell me about any breeders in Britain that are purposely raising partis. There should be tons of parti breeders there since that is where the Yorkie originated. Are they exhibitor breeders of the byb type breeder.( I am not referring to Biewers in Germany)
Sometimes I get the feeling that you parti breeders are just a little miffed that YTCA will not allow different colors to be included in the standard. I think that your agenda is to eventually challenge the YTCA to change the standard so that you can also show your dogs. I am sure that the white german sheppard owners feel the same way. |
So is it a fact that almost "no breeder put a spay/neuter agreement on their dogs" in the 60's and 70's or is this your opinion? If it's a fact, when did breeders start requiring spay/neuter agreements or when did they begin selling pups on limited registrations?
Is it a fact that "none of the exhibitor breeders dont have parti's, even back in Pomps day," or is it your opinion? I think we've shown you at least two
very reputable show breeders who have had parti's. As for "BS and here say", maybe if you contact AKC and speak with someone who was directly involved in the parti investigation - so you get the facts from the horses mouth and not just someone's "opinion" - maybe they could shed some light on which other Old time breeders were interviewed and which breeders said they had off colors appearing in their litters?
I don't consider myself a "parti guru." I consider myself as someone with an open mind; someone who has a basic understanding of how recessive genes work and someone who will do their research when something I'm told to believe, just doesn't jive.
I don't think that the UK allows off colored yorkies to be registered so, no, I don't know of anyone - they are still in the closet.
Personally, I'm not "miffed" but disappointed that there appears to be a double standard on off coloring in the breed and I'm disappointed that the information on their website is inaccurate and misleading.
