BTW, if you're interesred, the pups my vet referred to as 'tri colored' can be seen here. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yt-...1-weeks-3.html

I think Ms Gordon knew what she was looking for very early in a pup and might have called a standard Yorkie with some white 'mis-marked'. In any case, if she didn't say 'parti', I don't think we can assume 'parti' unless a picture of the dog is available.

Jim....perhaps this is what Ms Gordon was referring to. Pups, such as these, born black and white, you can see, not much tan. By the time they are six months the tan comes in ("or came over"). My Razz is one of these black and white puppies and I've posted a picture of him with his tan coming in nicely. I could understand why she wouldn't use the term parti, as it wasn't the term she was familiar with.
