I think if you take the time to study the history of the Yorkshire Terrier you will not be able to deny that a lot of years and hard work went into obtaining the yorkie we all know and love today.
If we start to allow parti colors as part of the standard how will it change the yorkie? The answer is simple. We don't know. It would only be answered by doing it and taking that risk. That is what it would be a risk to allow the parti color gene in because it opens the door to so many other genes to follow. That is where it gets dangerous. What else is behind that gene other than color? Who can answer that? That is the real question. |
