And for someone that says, "I have no vested interested in this", you sure do post in any and every parti thread that you can find. | |

By the way, I just now looked through some of the parti threads and the first one that I looked through about deafness and a parti Yorkie was this one: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...dilly-o-2.html I only see this topic briefly discussed and it certainly was not the tri-color being predisposed to deafness...to the contrary actually. | |

Truthfully, I hate responding to the parti threads, I just don't think all our information should be from the people who actually sell the dogs, its similar to doing research on the safety of cigarettes, and only reading about the studies conducted by R.J. Reynolds.

In Post # 59 some very valuable documentation that validates what the parti breeders have stated about early parti colors showing up in the Wildweir lines, was posted by a Biewer breeder not an AKC Parti breeder.

| In reference to people hiding their Parti puppies my personal opinion is that many breeders (not all) did ...the same way many breeders hid/hide Liver Shunt and went to war with Terri Shumsky when she went to bring it out of the closet. Even today it is still hush/hush. It might be one of the reason's Yorkies are 36 times more prone to get LS.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I'm not being snot, but I don't know what your post means exactly. I know many of you think the same old things are being posted, but I'm still learning. From what I gather, there is no actual real proof of anything, and until genetic testing is more advanced, I'm keeping an open mind. It took me a long time to even understand the arguments involved in this debate, my argument has never been about whether or not the piebald gene exists in a Yorkie, it didn't seem relevant to my belief that a breeder should breed to standard. I also have real concerns about breeding for the recessive gene, inbreeding is more likely to occur when this trait is desired, not that inbreeding never occurs with standard yorkies, but only among really poor breeders. I'm also concerned that many new breeders without any real experience in breeding, or an even basic understanding of genetics are being persuaded to add a parti carrier to their "line." I see this happening to Biewers as well, and I have concerns for their future too.

I Agree with you that breeders should first and foremost breed healthy dogs. The following comments do not apply to ALL show breeders, nor do they apply to any PASRTICULAR show breeder. In my opiniomn, show breeders would be more likely to breed dogs, with health issues, than the casuasl breeder. The reason I think that is because they would not want to spay/neuter a champion dog. They tell themselves that it is OK because they sell on spay/neuter contract only, so the fault is not being spread. Now I know that show breeders claim to be bettering the breed, and many of them really do try, but for others it is all about the trophy. those people will do anything to get that championship. they use hair dye, they try to disguise a long body by making the dog scrunch up when they stand. They tie strands of hair from their ears in to the top knot to make the ears higher, and various other things to improve the looks of their dogs. If they would go to all that trouble they probably would not care if the dog had a geneetic health issue. Not all parti breeders care about the dogs either. in fact there are partis out there that are frauds, those people are in it for the money. Others of us, believe that the color was in the initial makeup of the yorkie and should not become extinct. We are trying to develope the color in healthy dogs. What the future holds for them, as far as show potential, is unknown. But they are so showey, I cannot see them being ignored for long. All it would take is someone with some clout and some money to want the YTCA to accept them, and it will happen. | |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Apparently it is your opinion that shows breeders are breeding for the purpose of selling puppies. I disagree with the strongly. I really believe that most are actually trying to improve the breed, and they don't sell their dogs, they adopt them. Lets face it, for what they charge, they are barely breaking even. I think a good measure of the "why a breeder is breeding" is the prices they charge. Furthermore if you think the reason that: Quote:

You totally twisted everything that I said. No I do not believe that show breeders are in it to sell puppies. Where did I write that? I believe that they would not want to spay/neuter a champion because they would hope to produce more champions. As I clearly stated, some, NOT ALL, it's all about the trophy. Where did I indicate that I would not spay/neuter a dog with health issues. I clearly stated that I am only interested in developing the parti and I'll also add the golden color in the yorkshire terrier. I also find it amusing that we parti breeders are repeatedly accused of being in it for the money. I personally have yet to even get a parti puppy. so not sure where you think I am hauling in the $$$$$ call it selling, adopting, or rehoming, it is transfering ownership of a puppy for money. I do the same thing, seeing as I have yet to get a parti puppy, I have yet to sell, adopt, or rehome one. but I have sold fadopted or rehomed all of those that have not been partis. I don't think it really matters what I say or do, you are going to twist it or translate it into what you think I meant or do. You do not know me, you do not know my lifestyle, which clearly is not one of a high dollar dog producer. so why do you assume that I am only in it for the money. | |

| [quote=TammyJM;2437278] Is this member, with the deaf dog, a long-time trusted member? /quote] I know this is off topic, forgive me. But i a bothered by this post. Do you not except new members words? Just because somebody doesnt have 1000 posts and have been around for years, does that mean they dont know anything or that they cannot be trusted and you do not take them seriously? You say this like new members, and what they have to say does not matter. |

But I will tell you, if you are truly bothered by this (even though it wasn't intended as you took it), you will have hay-day with sooooo many threads on YT. Tammy Last edited by TammyJM; 01-26-2009 at 08:12 PM. | |
