Well, clearly from the sales of the Pure paws black/silver semi-permanent color...neither do a lot of show yorkies. And you can tell me til your blue in the face that it is not commonly used in the ring...but I know for a fact it is more common then many want to admit.
I'm not blind to those that color or enhance. I've been beaten in the ring by many nicely dyed yorkies BUT I'd rather be beaten by a "nicely" dyed yorkie than ones with bad toplines, bad structure, crippled rears ect.... But I do have to say when I'm beaten by a purple or green dog that's where I draw the line being beaten by a dyed dog....and yes it's happened.
