Why anyone would purposely set out to ruin such a noble breed as the yorkie is beyond my comprehension but that is just my humble opinion, as a yorkie fancier/exhibitor.

It was a question about what a Parti is please don't send this thread in such a negative direction, you stated your opinions...and it's very insulting at this point to make comments about ruining a breed, and those who have worked so hard to preserve and improve the Yorkie breed (in the Parti lines)...also those who studies genetics and read the AKC documents.

Let's be nice even if it's not something you prefer insulting it isn't necessicary.


Piebald gene...let some of the Parti breeders display their research here instead of confusing someone with a simple question in complicated matters of DNA-especially if you don't believe in the DNA research in the first place, the research and proof that got the AKC to accept Partis as pure Yorkies in the first place.

Ye either one reads all the genetic DNA proof and research and studies old references and "unpopular" history etc
or it was a and a that produced them...

Hope this thread goes in a better direction with no one insulting anyone else-especially those who work equally as hard if not harder to defend, improve, preserve and establish legitimacy of the Yorkie breed we all love...
