It is my opinion that a Papillon most likely was used to give the piebald or spotted pattern. I have seen Maltese/Yorkie crosses and none were ever spotted. |
These dogs are not crossed with anything. They are the product of two traditional yorkies just like the Biewers are. If there was a maltese mixed in or any other dog, it was way back before the breed was a breed of its own.
There were no doubt parti yorkies showing up way back when, but because they did not meet the standard they were probably culled at birth. We're a bit more civilized now.
The breeder that my parti is from the Crownridge/Summit yorkies. were show breeders of traditional yorkies for years before they got their first parti yorkie. Each of these puppies have been DNA'd extensively before being registered.
The pedigrees are available at the AKC website, if you want to investigate this for yourself. I'm sure if you do a search under Crown Ridge or Summit, it will all come.
