Do all the clubs have a goal to participate in AkC conformation in the future?

Why do some clubs believe the Biewer is a pure Yorkie and others believed the opposite?

Does the previous question have any bearing on why or why not get the Biewer Mars tested?

Is the use of the Mars test used as a tool to get AkC recognition?

How will the club that believes the Biewer is a pure yorkie ever get AKC recognition as a new breed when AkC requires the new breed to be made up of 3 different breeds of dogs?

Great questions!
