As far as Parti's go, I find it interesting that there were only a couple of Parti breeders 5 years ago and now there's over 30??? It seems that 100's of Yorkies have all of the sudden become Parti carriers, when for 100's of years you rarely saw a Yorkie with any amount of white on it that did not go away with age.
Another thing about Parti's I find interesting is that 5 years ago they looked liked a poorly bred Yorkie that was all washed out, scraggly hair, bad coat texture..... and now they have beautiful thick coats and don't resemble a Yorkie at all in structure. How can a color gene totally change the bone structure of a dog????? |
Ditto that!! Most of the parti's I have seen have Easty-Westy ears and just dont have the Yorkie structure/conformation of the correct Yorkie. Most look to me like poorly bred Yorkies that you see in pet quality Yorkies. And they do have cottony coats, much like a Shih-Tzu. They seem to be getting better over the years as I am sure better quality Yorkies are now being bred into the parti lines.
