I have not personally seen a parti yorkie in person, and I have seen probably hundreds of standard colored yorkies, so to an extent they are not that common. If someone really desires to have one and has the ability to afford one, then thats just up to them. It seems rather controlling to get so upset by this.
You're right it is a free country, but that also means that we are entitled to our opinions. I feel strongly about only supporting those breeders who breed to standard, and I will continue to encourage people to support them as well. I actually don't think there are that many yorkies who meet standard, I think it's a very rare thing to see. What's the point of having a purebred, and then changing the standard?
