If they were a form of the breed they would be in our confirmation events. No questions asked. You wouldn't have to fight this fight. But I see a maltese, s**tzu and maybe others. It is no different to me. I LOVE ALL DOGS!!!!! So it's nothing unkind for me to say this. But hearing people call my breed a TRADITIONAL?
Yes there are many parti breeds out there. Just not in yorkies. It's just a few people that are breeding some mix breeds that are way over priced. |
There is talk about white yorkies inb some of the earliest documents on the breed
Wildwier Kennels told the AKC there their line had produced way more partis than the Nikko line. How, when or where it happened no one knows. But back before the yorkie became the yorkie many breeds were being shown under the broken haird Scottish terriers, including the maltese.
The peasants that owned these dogs were not concerned with who their dogs were mating with.
I really thought that we had gotten beyond the question of whether or not they are pure bred yorkies.
The AKC set oiut a letter that they were satisfied that the parti is a natural occuring color in the Yorkies.
So whether you believe it or not, doesn't really matter. Documentation indicates that is more likely than not that they are pure bred yorkies.
Would you prefer they be called Standard colored? Or perhaps Classic or Originals. it's just a term that is used to distinguish betwween the various colors without going into a long explanation.
A rose by another name smells just as sweet.
