Depends. There's more than one group really. The Biewer Terrier Club of America has always believed that the biewer had to be established as purebred thru DNA.
Some groups ( and I'm not singling out anybody) felt it was healthier to breed in a yorkie every so often. They still called their dogs biewers. They won't be able to do that any more.
Some groups have stopped the mixing but their foundation stock may not be pure either. They stand to lose big bucks by losing the biewer name. They call their dogs a "breed" & not a "terrier". It may be a little misleading to continue to do that.
So will everybody be friends & play nice now? Don't know.
If you want a biewer terrier though, I'd lean toward a BTRA registered litter to ensure you have a purebred. Just my opinion.
