Bows - you can have your yorkie wear any color of bows you would like. There is not a rule stating what color - the dog is being judged not the bow. :-) So have fun and pick the bow color that compliments the color of your yorkie best. Most people generally use red or a deep orange, but no where are those the only colors. When they are pups - I use red and white poka dots, blue, pink, red, orange and have used purple before. You just want to make sure the color compliments their color and head. Size is also important to help compliment the head.

Point System - the point system for the year is set by total number of enteries for your breed the year before. This will change as the numbers change each year. It does not matter which district you show in - the points are collect. You do not have to reshow in another district. As long as you show in the USA - all those points earned go in together for the total. Handlers travel all over the place - you go for where the points are. You will need two majors, which are points you earned that are 3-5 points. When you are hunting for majors - you go where you can find them at. You will need a total of 15 points (two of them being a 3-5 point majors). So yes, the points accumlate and are combined.
I hope this helps.
