Also, a question for some of the long time breeders out there: in all the litters you have had, have you ever come across yorkies with a predominance of white in them like the partis and Biewers today?

I have met some breeders who have been breeding 30+ years and they have not had pups in litters with more than white on chests, some on underside of the abdomen.
I think what is hampering the Biewers from being accepted by the AKC is that they were registered as a separated breed in Germany.

The reason that the partis are AKC, is bc the AKC was able to compare the DNA of the original partis to their traditional colored champion YTs Nikkos Rolls Royce Ashley.

I personally would not buy a parti that could not be traced back to him. BC there are many knock offs out there, that are being sold as purebred partis.
