Well the Biewer breeders managed to do it. Things like this just take time and perserverence. Nothing is impossible. First a breed club will have to be started and then they will take up the battle with the AKC

Some must also understand this DNA testing that is being done on litters only proves that those litters came from the two parents listed -- it says NOTHING at all about the pedigree of the mother and father! As another said, the lineage that really needs to be DNA tested to show they are not from the parents that were listed, is probably not even alive anymore.

True the Dna testing only proved who the parents were. But the lineage leads back to champions. Champions who were judged to be pure yorkies that met all of the qualifications according to the judges. ALSO the breeders were long time reputable breeders.
There was an element of trust involved.
