It is very rare to get a particolor, and if one is found, it tends to be very expensive. [12] Some Yorkshire Terriers are liver or chocolate, a brown color; they are unable to produce black pigment. [13] The breed is defined by its color, and such non-standard colors may indicate health problems or cross-breeding with other breeds of other colors. [4] The AKC registration form for Yorkshire Terriers allows for four choices: blue and tan, blue and gold, black and tan, black and gold. Color alone will not affect whether or not a dog is a good companion and pet. Even though off-colored Yorkshire Terriers are advertised at premium prices, being of an unusual or untypical color is neither new, desirable, nor exotic | I am not saying yorkies can't be different I am just saying there is not different types of yorkies. A yorkie is a yorkie no mater size, color or look if they are 100% yorkie then they are just a yorkie.
