You are leading people too believe that by adding a color variance...it would change the blue and tan standard...and it's just not true.
For those of you who do not understand standards and color variations...look at the American Cocker Spaniel standard. It has three color varieties. And they are not having any problems breeding and showing (separately for the most part) black's, buffs, chocolate's, parti's, roans, black and tan's. Every color shares the same standard EXCEPT for color. American Kennel Club - Cocker Spaniel
AS far as the merle Chi is concerned...the chi standard simply states...Any color - Solid, marked or splashed. And if my sources are correct...the parent club voted in 2008 that merles would NOT be disqualified from showing and AKC reg. However, there is a growing anti merle movement within the Chi community that is trying to gain support for a DQ. But what does that have to do with the topic at hand? More propaganda I suppose.  |
The topic has been adding the Parti as a variety and well the DQ in yorkies have been brought up so it another breed club is joining the ranks of the YTCA in adding a DQ I think it fits the topic at hand....AND another reason it's part of the topic is it's also been addressed in your post about the cocker spaniel ect...so I provided another breed that is trying to prevent the same thing we've prevented
