To the original poster.. sorry, I haven't been on here for awhile.. but you have it exactly RIGHT! Sorry, you feel that you've had to be in the "closet" I totally understand.. but you are correct in your statements. There are those who seem to protect their turfs very vocally. You have yorkies.. the Biewers are nothing more than a LINE of yorkies that come from Germany that have a recessive gene that causes the spotting. There are LINES of yorkies here in the states that also have that gene, they were tested by the AKC and are allowed to register with the AKC, they are called Parti yorkie.
I brought over my first Biewer yorkies in 2006 and started breeding with the Parti yorkies a few years ago. At my home, I have both, you can not tell one dog from the other.. They are wonderful, beautiful, lovely dogs.. just like all yorkies are. Enjoy them!
