How sad though as I read through this "parti" thread how close minded many of you are. You are in limbo because of your closed minds, and you can scream all you want that you know what you have. PROVE IT! You’re constantly disagreeing, for the sake of disagreeing, but let me say this, you must be very careful when developing a new breed. At least I see one club doing just that. Right before your eyes you are seeing a new breed being developed. Who do you know of in the history of breed development has put over 100 dogs to genetic testing? Who cares if MARS tells you they test out Yorkshire terrier. Can you not go beyond that? Somewhere the Biewer Yorkshire Terrier a la pom pon was bred to what is now identifying itself to that having a genetic marker. As we move forward in dedicated breeding programs and mix our tested “Biewer Terriers” with our tested “Yorkshire Terriers” or as you call them our Biewer Yorkshire Terrier a la pom pon, the genetic marker becomes stronger (Genetics 101). More offspring will be identified under this marker. BBCI people, you too have Biewer Terriers. As you continue to sell your offspring to breeders who have stronger “genetically marked Biewer Terriers” the purebred Biewer Terrier becomes more established. Why are some having such difficulty understanding this? I have a harder time understanding how some can outright say on their websites they have this “impeccable line.” YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE. You have somebody else’s line. Once you have established 3 to 4 generations of your own breeding, then debate!
As far as the parti-yorkie, you have just that. It has already been genetically via DNA tested to be a Yorkshire Terrier with the wrong colors. |
We parti breeders know what we have. we are not trying to make them out to be anything less than purebred yorkshire terriers. And the Biewer Yorkshire terriers ar e also yorkies.
I am very open minded, I am just trying to get an answer to what the makeup is of the Biewer Terrier as I do believe that is is not a purebred dog. and also which breed they are registered as and which registry is registering them?
Do you have those answers?
