In December of 1976 Wildweir Kennels( Joan Gordon and Janet Bennett) had a tri-color puppy born from two traditional color yorkies. She said her sister and her had heard of it in England but it was the first one they had gotten in a litter They registered him with AKC as Wildweirs Triplicate "Trippy" because of his tri-colors. Their was no Streamglen in his pedigree.
This was 8 years before Mr. Biewers Tri- colors were born and Mrs Gordon said that the tricolor was imported into Germany from England.
Joan Gordon of Wildweir Kennels wrote that yorkies can be born tri-colored in her book in 1976 (The Complete Yorkshire Terrier) Page 205. This was written years before anyone ever heard of what is now called a Biewer. |
