When she went on vacation my mom watched her Maltese. Well not knowing much about heat cycles and such as our yorkie was only 1 1/yrs. old. She came into heat at some point while the Maltese was visiting and low and behold she started getting bigger! My mom being worried ran her to the vet only to find out she was PG and due anyday! The puppies were adroable. One was all Black with 4 white feet and white tipped tail, the chest hair was brown and the body coat was black. Not like a puppy Yorkie as it stayed that way but more like a nice maltese coat only black. One looked exactly like a yorkie, and the other one was brown, black and white all over. All 3 boys and of course my mom gave them to friends and relatives. I saw all 3 as adults and they pretty much stayed the same coloring as they were when they left our home except the one that looked like a Yorkie his head turned all gold with maturity. The two who did not look like a yorkie had a coat that matted easier than the Yokire silk coat does, and required more grooming time simialr to the Maltese coats. Having had this expericne I am positive that Beiwers came down from at least these two breeds. It amazed me how two of them looked just like what is now called Beiwers. Oh and all the ears stood up and we never did anything to make them stand, and my mom never did dock the tails on the two who looked like Bewiers only on the one who looked like the Yorkie. But the Beiwer looking ones were bigger in size than our Yorkie standard, and the Yorkie looking one was 5 lbs.
I also do not think they should have the name Yorkshire in the naming of this new breed, it should have it's own name like Bewier terriers that some have mentioned. This way they will have ther eown merrit and pride of there seperate breed! |
