Just for the record, the standard for adults is steel blue and tan according to the YTCA. Puppies are born black but later turn to steel blue. Black and tan adults are just as off colored as parti's because black coated adult yorkies lack the gene that causes their coats to turn blue. Yorkies who's coats are too light (silver and tan) are also not to standard.
