Every puppy in the litters were DNA tested and still are. If you want to register a litter of parti colored puppies, you have to have the parents and every puppy in the litter DNA'd. This is what they went through to get hese parti colored babies accepted by the AKC.
So if a parti colored puppy is AKC registered,f you can bet that it was DNA tested.
i have done my homeowrk on these puppies. I was not going to spend a lot of money to buy a dog that might have been half maltese. I went to the very origin of their existence, and bought from champion bloodlines.
The original breeders went to a lot of expense to get these dogs accepted by the AKC, and the AKC did not give in easily. It took many many generations of testing before they would register them. |
Just because a puppy has been DNA tested, does not prove that there is not a breed other than yorkshire terrier someplace in the background. All it proves is who the sire and dam are. You could test sire and dam on parents, grandparents, etc. but could not go back far enough to prove there was not another breed bred to a yorkie.
