The American yorkie has a parti yorkie, who had a heck of a time being accepted into the standard AKC yorkie breed for many years.. These dogs were bred here, and were considered a mutant of the breed for a long time. Some breeders destroyed them because they were not standard, sad but true.
People of the United States of America stick together like glue.
Is anyone loyal anymore? ABOLUTELY!

I'm not quite sure that I understand this post?
I have been interested in the Biewer Yorkshire Terrier since I first found out they existed. Since then, I have been doing a lot of reading and "semi-researching" to understand the breed a little better. Thus, I have been reading all the "Biewer" threads and trying to suck up any knowledge that I can. I realize that they "originated" in Germany -- and I also know they "originated" from a Yorkshire Terrier. The name from the German Registries and Clubs I have found call them "Biewer Yorkshire Terrier ala pom pon." So, to me, it seems like they are Yorkshire Terriers that have acquired their color characteristics through recessive gene breeding. Research tells me that in Germany, they are considered their own breed -- and do not compete in the Yorkshire Terrier breed class until they go up against other breeds in the "Toy" class. When, and if the Biewer Yorkshire Terrier gets accepted into the AKC, I would assume this to be the case here as well. I hope that I am not going to "stir things up" again, as that doesn't seem to be productive in helping people learn about these dogs. I am not trying to re-start any debates -- just trying to understand a little better.
I just didn't understanding the part regarding "your country is being sold to the highest bidder." Unfortunately, our country is based on capitalism, and the only time that I see problems with introducing this wonderful Biewer Yorkshire Terrier breed to this country, is with the unethical breeders who are only "in it" for the money, and refuse to research ALL aspects of the breed, be it the genetics, color and health issues or problems that may come out "after" the unethical breeder has been paid, and spent the money -- and we have yet more doggies with genetic problems.
Sorry this post is so long -- I'm just trying to learn as much as I can!
