Biewers CAN be bred to a standard yorkie with permission from the registering club. Many Biewer owners feel this is not a good practice and will only breed Biewer to Biewer. This is one of the major disputes between some of the Biewer clubs in the USA. My question about breeding to traditional yorkies is this: Are we really wanting the smaller faces and other characteristics that have been bred for in the US? The bitch in my avatar is registered as a yorkie in Germany. She has a Biewer mother and a yorkie dad. She will have a 50/50 chance of Biewer puppies and yorkie puppies when bred to a Biewer male.
