Geesh I guess your saying that Joan and Jan Gordon invented the history of the other colors and wrote them in their book. That they fabricated the part of them being born of several colors on Page 205 of their Book:The Complete Yorkshire Terrier
Author: Joan B. Gordon, Janet E. Bennett
Behind THE COMPLETE YORKSHIRE TERRIER is an authority attested by the greatest kennel record in the breed's history. —
In nearly three decades of devotion to the breed, the authors - twin sisters Joan B Gordon and Janet E Bennett - have finished 169 Yorkshire Terriers to AKC championship, over a hundred of them homebred. —
THE COMPLETE YORKSHIRE TERRIER rewardingly reflects this unmatched experience. For veterans and novices alike, the superb chapters on care and grooming (brimming with special insights and hints) are sure to become the quoted guide for years to come.
Now you tell me from this photo how we have misquoted or invented history from this. |
I try not to jump into the heated topics (not a fan) and I'd like to just preface what I have to say by saying the pics of the biewers and partis are absolutely gorgeous and maybe the AKC should consider making them breed variations just like the Cocker Spaniel breed has....however, I wouldn't use that quote to boost what you're saying....just trying to be helpful. The quote says that it is "very wise to guard against the possibility of tricolor." I would use something else...perhaps the dogs' utter cuteness, other breeds who have accepted color and coat variations (Cocker Spaniel, Parsons Terrier, Collie, etc.). And if you were just asking which one people who were interested in these two breeds preferred, sorry if I misunderstood the question posed, but I have greatly enjoyed the pics of all of the biewers and partis you all own - beautiful dogs!!!
