I know of YTCA breeders who are quite knowledgable in the genetics behind this breed, including illnesses, coloring, etc. I think it is a misnomer that just bc someone believes they should not breed for "fault" that they are not aware and knowledgable about the genetics behind the coloring. The YTCA breeders I know are very well-read and have studied this breed extensively, as well some are published in well-respected printed media.
She also has a traditionally colored yorkie and claims to be looking for ppl to discuss breeding, exhibiting and genetics with. Who better than other breeder/exhibitors?
I have already referred her to you for your perspective on color genetics. I think I have provided suggestions that provide a well-rounded point of view.
