Many test have been done by the YTCA and several independent breeders in the US, and Yorkies DO NOT carry the piebald gene! Simple.
A Parti and a Biewer having that much white MUST have the peibald gene!

From what I understand, that is exactly the stance of the Biewer club of AMerica. They want them recognized as a breed unto themselves, a Biewer Terrier. Which tells me they are more along the track of a true fancier once they realized they do not have a rare or different colour yorkie.
No reputable breeder of any breed of purebred dog would breed for anything other than what their breed standard outlines. As a show breeder, I know breeders with other breeds, they are true fanciers of their breed and they are utterly horrified when some fools come up with what they consider to be rare anomolies of their particular breed.
