Yes, that is the standard for the Yorkie breed. I never heard of any other colored Yorkie myself until Tiah had this litter as I have mentioned in other posts. I went on line and learned quite a bit myself. The colors mentioned above are the "standard" and the normal color. Anything else is a genetic color .... oh I don't want to use this word, but... kindof "mishap". They are not the desired color by AKC, but I have found that becuase it is rare for this occurance, the are desired by individuals who want something hardly anyone else has. I am just as curious as everyone else to see how they turn out. They are the only ones I have heard about that have white markings on their heads. I noticed yesterday that their nails are getting darker and they have darker spots on the pads of their little feet now. Also, the male with the bigger white blaze has little darker specks on his pink nose, but the little red girl doesn't yet. Both sets (boy and girl of each color) are doing great and the boys are both a little bigger than the girls. Hope this isn't more info than anyone wanted to hear. |
