Mr. Ed. Bootman of Halifax, England furnished an article on the origin of the breed, for publication in the "English Shopkeeper", which that journal, "feeling the importance of all facts relating to the origin of the breed", published as follows: "Swift's Old Crab, a cross-bred Scotch Terrier, Kershaw's Kitty, a Skye, and an Old English Terrier bitch.

Here is a picture of a couple of Skye Terriers. Does anyone else see white???
I am not going to get into this great debate over all of this controversy here. I have Biewers and I am extremely proud of them. I get that your love is just as strong for your yorkies and fighting for the standard that is set for them. I am sure this was also upsetting to the breeders that had
pure bred Paisleys, Clydesdales, Scotch Terriers, ect., to develop the Yorkshire Terrier.
I can't explain all there is to know about the Biewers and/or the parties, as I wasn't there at the beginning. I just know that they are here along with hundreds of other new breeds...
Good luck to all that are for and opposed to find in your hearts what is right for you!!
