But to satisfy myself I did DNA and yes they are like the partis. Have been cropping up for years but it was the same with the goldens as the partis - hush, hush. I have been able to reproduce the goldens a few times and now own six adults. I have had them crop up in litters from the original pair that I bred and have definitely worked to keep them in my line. I love the colors. The gold and parti. If in doubt, do a DNA.
In this case it is impossible to know without DNA since she was allowed in the front yard unsupervised. Including a couple of pics. I know a lot of people call them golden if they turn golden as they get older. That is a totally different thing and those are not true "born blondes". |
Thank you as well Julia. I had a breeder contact me to tell me she had a blonde yorkie, when I was looking to add another baby to my household. I thought she was trying to pull some kind of scam, so I went elsewhere.
The blonde you have is stunning...that same breeder is now retiring one of her blondes....I may just have to get her as the price is right and she has been spayed. I have to say it again, she is just gorgeous!
