According to the Biewer club, the Biewer originated in Germany by a woman whose name is Biewer. And yes they claim they are a totally different breed. It seems to me that since they are not registrable in America they have been mixed with Yorkies. There are Biewers originating from Germany and Biewer Terriers and parti colored Yorkies. I don't know if a parti colored Yorkie can be registered.
BTW In Germany it is illegal to alter a dog's appearance by surgical methods such as docking the tail or clipping their ears. Biewer have long tails. I am looking for a Biewer. My last dog was a Yorkie, I thought I would get a different breed for my next dog but I still loved my little Gracie, therefore a Biewer came to mind.
