a) Where will these poor little fellas end up? On the Dog Lovers registry, Pet Lovers registry, two un recognised registries, where puppy mill BYB's register there poor little ill bred dogs, who live their lives out in cages breeding litter after litter, who can't even walk after 6 years of continuous breeding. We have lots of unwanted little Yorkie sitting miserably in pounds, unwanted and unloved.
b) In the hope of getting them registered with the UKKC, that will never happen. You need to show both Sire and Dam pedigrees, before pups can be registered in this Country. What are they going to say, Oh sorry the dog lives in the States, just the sperm lives here in the UK. Nop that won't work, perhaps they could lie and try to pass it on to another UK dogs pedigree and bingo we have Tri's, then bingo next litter we have Parti, nop we don't register parti's. Oh well perhaps we will say they are blue & tan, for a few years and then bang! Hay presto, there will be soo many white dogs with back saddles, they will be forced to recognise the parti colour.

Well isn't that what happened in the states. We will just have to wait and see, but I might take a guess the UKKc would revoke a persons pedigree should that ever be found to be the case, as Fraud.

We already have nice little white cross Yorkie in the UK, they are called Yorktese, Morkie, Yorkstie, Teady bears, etc etc etc, they sit in dog shelters too, waiting for a loving home. Havn't we got enough non standard dogs, unloved, uncared for, exploited as "Rare", only difference in the UK, a person can be sued for selling a dog as something it is not.

Whatever, happened to responsible breeding!
Maybe some are wanting pure breed AKC Parti Yorkshire Terrier sperm to produce more Pure bred Parti Yorkshire Terrier dogs.

I am a little confused as to why you yourself on your bandwagon of pure breds, when you wanted and didn't you buy a mixed bred BTCA Biewer ?
You say you have all those little mixes just sitting in the UK shelters that look just like them.
So, WHY didn't you get one of those out of the shelter if you believe there is no difference ???
Are you not yourself exploiting a "Rare" dog if there is not many of them in the UK ?
