I dont see any where on Bayleighs papers that is says, parti gene carrier. So, how would they know? Do they research to find that the father was the parti & then she (or another dog) would be disqualified?

I have been told 2 different things. I was told they would not allow parti gene carriers in the ring, then I was told that they do. So, I am confused now.
It's not that that won't allow a gene carrier in the ring it's the parti colored yorkie that is a disqualification. If you get into showing you would "not" want a parti gene carrier because if you get into showing you might want to breed down the road and do not want to produce a parti yorkie. It's the color that is the disqualification not the carrier but you wouldn't want one if you get into showing I hope this clears it up
