I think chocolate yorkies are beautiful. I have one that is 3 years old now and I'm glad I didn't have him put to sleep like some so called expert advised. I didn't know much about them 3 years ago, but have learned much about them since then. They are not some rare breed and should not be sold as such. Mine came from two blue and gold yorkies and he was the only one. He was as healthy as the other four in the litter, but he had hazel eyes and red nose and pads. Now he has blond crest and he is chocolate or brown. He's taller than my other yorkies and is very high spirited. He likes to jump into your arms. To register them...all you need is the registration from both parents and a picture of the puppy....front and side view...different people have different opinions. We always want to ostrisize something that's different. What if we killed our kids that come out darker or different from a previous one, but you know who the daddy is? They don't have health problems outside of your regular problems that you may encounter with any yorkie. Mine has never had any serious health problems, thank god. He's really much prettier and friendlier than the rest of my yorkies and about twice the size of his father and mother. Nonetheless, I love him as much as I love the others...standard of the breed has to start somewhere...and actually before the standard of any breed....they are all mixed with something to even get a standard...People need to know what they are doing and should be careful with what they say, but you have no control over what color a puppy will be...you can come close with genetics..yy/xx..yx/xy..xx/yy..Anyway, I hope this information is helpful. If anyone has any other questions....please feel free to respond....I enjoy reading some of these posts and I frown on some of them. I don't post on a regular basis, but this chocolate yorkie thing is getting crazy. By the way...the chocolate yorkie is not that rare...but, a good reputable person, breeder, what have you is a rare find...someone who sticks behind what they breed and what they say and what they sell....someone who doesn't charge you outrageous prices because they can...someone who won't sell you a puppy regardless of how much money you have...if you're not the right person for the puppy or your home situation is not conducent to raising a puppy...you don't get one. Someone who screens a buyer or new owner as much as possible. Antyway...enough of that...talk to you guys later...do the right things...listen more...and talk a little less...it's hard to talk and listen at the same time.
