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. |
Funny how partis are "in the closet" when you cant find any! The YTCA doesnt allow off colors either.
As for showing me two reputable breeder that have partis who are they? And dont tell me its the coveted Nikko lines. Thats pretty laughable as Nikko sold to anyone who had the money to buy their dogs with no breeding contracts.I am sure that some breeders had a spay/neuter clause back in the day but I dont think it was as prevelent as it is today.Even in the 70's and 80's to early 90's these contracts were not as common as they are today. If they knew then what we all know now and knew how much this breed has been damaged, they would never turn any dogs over to a non show breeder. And limited registration didnt come out until about 8 years ago. I dont think they had that option back in Pompys day.
But you act like the "parti guru" LOL You are the only one on here that seems to have all of the knowledge about partis. By the way, parti guru is not meant to be a negative thing.
