Ok, so I am not a breeder or a show person but I have been following this thread with interest.
Forgive my ignorance once again, but why can't they just make a whole new breed for the Parti? Does it have to be a Yorkshire Terrier or why can't you make a whole new terrier called the Parti Terrier or something? Wouldn't that be better than being the backward cousin to the yorkie that no one wants to recognize?
People would still want them; they are still beautiful and unusual, and you could then get in the show ring and do your thing?
I'm sure it's not that simple but from an outsider looking in ~ it seems that there must be some way to solve the problem.
