As the proud owner of one Yorkshire Terrier and two Biewer a la Pom Pon's (did I just wake up a sleeping dog?) I think for the first time ever I'd like to weigh in on one of these Biewer vs Parti threads.

I understand where Ann is coming from by wanting to have some type of "generalized" sticky regarding this very controversial issue. Cause it was here on YT that I first seen a Biewer and wanted to know more about them.

What instead I found was heated threads that bordered on downright nasty. And in the mix of everyone claiming "THEY ARE CORRECT" the beauty of all these dogs, whatever you want to believe them to be, (Biewer, YT, Biewer Terrier and Parti Yorkies) was completely lost. And I'd walk away saying "Huh???"

I am a proud member (as some of you know) of one of the club links in kpstoybox post. But these heated threads are not doing any of our dogs justice, and that breaks my heart.

With that said, I feel bchgirls post was the closest except where she removed the YTCA. For whatever we want to believe about the origin of our dogs, etc. the discussion circle always includes the Yorkie and without permitting the YTCA's perspective on this issue is doing a disservice to the person seeking information.

I am one for ALL FACTS ON THE TABLE. You have to remember that most of the folks looking at these dogs are not nearly as informed as those that have posted on this thread. I was one of them.

So there's my two cents, Ann. However, I do agree with bchgirl in that she says... "good luck, Ann"
