So not to belabor the points I made above but only to re-iterate, why is the YTCA so against moving to a subsect of the breed in terms of colour?

Are there any concerning genetic reasons for this? WHERE is the data?
As I see it...when a breeder joins the YTCA they make a pledge to adhere to a code of conduct and ethic's. They pledge to protect the breed..how is this done?
By adhering to the standard as best they can..this is not done by breeding none standard colors..Parti's. There is big difference in breeding a Yorkie that is too light or too dark and breeding a parti into the gene pool. The Wildweir sisters wrote about color dilution and why a diluted color Yorkie is useful in a breeding program.
So if these are the rules and a member agrees to abide by them, would you respect a member who decides after joining the YTCA to not adhere to them?

I have always agreed the majority rules...and the majority voted, the vote was, no at this time.
