Here are a little info about Biewer and Parti Yorkies
The Biewer, named after the founder,originated in Germany in the mid 80's. Over the years they are selectively bred and a standard was set. The standard is similar to the Yorkie, but calls for specific color placement. White paws, tip of the tail, symetrical coloring on the head and face, etc and no docking of tail. It has been recognized as a separate breed by some organization and can be shown in some venues. Not in the AKC
Partis are tri-colored Yorkies. They can be registered with but not shown in AKC. Can be shown in some other venues. There is no standard set for them that allows for the non-standard coloring, but typically, most Parti breeders follow the YT standard with color as the exception.

Thank you so much! I have lots of links to read now! Her tail is not docked and I am good with that. She is coming for a house visit at around 7 weeks. I will post a pic of her then. I am going to attempt to get another back side pic of her on now. She is just so lovely!
