Her color is what they call a "fault". Yes, she could and probably does have an
AKC registration. She just didn't come out the correct color. She is a cutie but I hope they're not trying to sell her as "rare".
Yes no such thing, same as "teacup" yorkie. as in not to the breed standard. I guess the same as chocolate and partis? That is until they get accepted as a breed in the future?

I think 850 is a steal for any yorkie.


Also wanted to say... cj125 is right, just hoping the breeder does not sell as rare and charge more (which they seem not to be doing). We had looked at a family of yorkies the day after we got Uni. the mom was a golden. She was also bigger than standard. She had 7 pups, yes seven! They were huge. (Also the dad was aggressive, that's why they had him locked up in another room! Thanks goodness we didn't buy from them!!!) Anyway, what I'm saying is when you have a fault such as this, they should not be bred to pass on that gene.
