I love the little Biewer - who wouldn't??

Correct me if I'm wrong.

From what I have read - it appears to me that the little Biewer is a color mutation that showed up in a Yorkie's litter(s) and was recognized and appreciated to be a beautiful little dog. Then, fortunately, this wonderfully colored little dog was selectively bred to maintain and produce more of the same.

The Biewer does not meet the Yorkie color standards, but with careful breeding and care, the Biewer has developed color standards of its own.

We purists are just going to have to step aside and realize that we have another little guy who is fast making his mark on the world. Haven't seen a Yorkie lover yet who didn't look at the little Biewer without saying, "Isn't he beautiful!"

My hope is that the delightful little Biewer will soon be recognized as a little breed unto himself and be able to hold his own in any dog show in the world.

And - who do we have to thank for this colorful little guy? - the Yorkie, of course!

Is the Biewer a Yorkie???? Yes he is, but also he's different!

I like to think of the Biewer as a darling, colorful, little dog that the Yorkie invented.
