They are not the same. Parti Yorkies have a wide range of pattenrs and markings and do not have a standard. When you breed Partis you can get a varitey of markings from the standard blue/tan to almost all white with a patch of color here and there.

Biewers are considered a separate breed because they have standard which calls for markings to be in a specific place on the body. And when you breed 2 biewers together you will get the same pattern that's described in the standard in every litter.

If you breed the 2 together you will ruin the pattern of the Biewer and the consistancy.

Thanks for asking and not assuming the are the same!
