Why do these threads get heated? Three reasons basically. You have people who believe biewers are a breed of their own and should be bred respectively as such. Others who believe the dogs are just a color and not a breed...and third...the group of women who are passionate about the original yorkie standard. There is no need to provide any of those arguments into a sticky providing the differences between the two.
There's actually a fourth...but sometimes it's better to let sleeping dogs lie.  |
Well, it should come as no surprise that I agree with this.
I want to add..I wasn't thrilled with Misty's interpretation of "the differences"...but at least she didn't degrade the parti and those that love and breed them. So I have no problem with her post being the explanation in the sticky.
As far as Nancy's contribution is concerned...the only relevance the link to the YTCA and the parti yorkie have in common...is a sentence or two of labeling
all parti breeders as unscrupulous. That link may prompt or scare a newbie into not purchasing a parti yorkie (which I am certain was the purpose in adding the link). But in all seriousness...unless you are allowing the politics or opinions of breeding the parti into the equation...how is the link to the YTCA going to help anyone determine the difference's between the Biewer and Parti? This sticky is not called "Everything you should know concerning the Parti Yorkie". It is "The differences between the Biewer and the parti yorkie". And that is what is being lost in this thread.
