I know you can get gentic throwbacks but a throwback to what in that line? Bwiers are a mix of something if I am not mistaken so that is how they got their original coloring. In this case I would lean towards it being a yorkie/maltese mix. I have to see the vet tonight when I drop off Lex so I will ask him and let you guys know what he says.
Not bashing you Bizzymammabee... just a little friendly FYI. Biewers (if they are from Germany) are from two full-blooded yorkies. The biewer has a recessive gene and are accepted by AKC as Yorkshire Terriers. (You just can't show them.) Germany and Canada recognize them as a separate breed, and Biewer owners are currently working with AKC to separate them out as a separate breed here in the USA. But a true Biewer is not a mix. I did a little research and spent some time on Biewer-Talk because of my Sammie. Both her parents are full-blooded yorkies, but she carries the recessive gene that biewers share. (After talking to the yorkie doctor associated with AKC, there are no color-related health issues with the true Biewer.) Maybe the white is a bit more recessive??? lol. But her face doesn't look 100% yorkie. She looks a little Maltese to me in the face???? I'm glad you're going to check with your vet. I'm interested in hearing what he has to say...
