Does anyone know of any Parti/ Parti carrier breeder in Maine or New Hampshire
 

Hi!

Does any one know of breeders in maine new hampshire even as far as massachusets that has parti yorkies or parti carriers? would love to hear of any standard yorkie breeders too ! please email me at a.brick@hotmail.com

Thanks!

Check out ytca.org for a list of breeders. They will not have parti's because they are reputable breeders and white coloring specifically identified as a disqualification.

Whoa...please..let's not start out by saying all YTCA breeders are reputable..they are not...some are good and some are not..just because you do not believe in Parti's/Biewers does not mean a lot of other members here on YT feel the same as you. We have many members who have these dogs and I believe they are reputable people. The Parti's are recognized by AKC as a purebred dog. The Biewers are recognized by German registries and a few here in the states.

To the OP I suggest if you would like a Parti to start your homework on the interenet (Goggle). YOu will find many breeders out there. You will also find some Parti breeders on YT. There are good breeders and bad breeders in all situations.

If you are looking for a standard Yorkie I would check out YTCA.org for a breeder in your area. YOu still need to do lots of homework and not just depend on YT.

YTCA is a great place to start in your search for a reputable breeder...that was my reason for posting the reference. It was not my intent to say I don't like parti's...I think they are darling. but show breeders are not going to have parti's...AKC does register them but they're DQ in show.

That you for clarifing this for me. I have been searching for a breeder in my area for a LONG time, at least 6 mo. I found only one breeder in Maine thAt has them but after doing so reaserch and talking to the breeder I don't agree with thier breeding practices. I have had a lead from here that I will be looking into , I don't want to "order " a dog off the internet as I would like to meet the dog first :-)

Well that is not true either as one of the top Yorkie breeders in the world who was murdered a few years ago had Parti's and showed them in IABCA. Who knows who else has them.

I would have been comfortable with your statement if you had left the reputable part off...just told this person a good place to start looking for a Yorkie breeder is with YTCA.

WOW...Alyssa...that was a VERY board statement!! Besides the fact that the original poster did not ask anything about show breeders or about showing at all....she specifically asked about PARTI breeders! I own a parti (as you know because she used to be your website logo model) and I am VERY reputable!!

Also, you said that no show breeders will have the parti Yorkie.... :rolleyes: I will just say, that is NOT correct and leave it at that.

Good luck to the OP on your search.

I belong to the YTCA and we do not condone the Parti yorkie as you can not show it in conformation as it will be DQ'ed. I think all that are related to the yorkie are adorable and sometimes beautiful but I DO breed to the AKC/YTCA standard as closely as possible and not for parti's, goldens or chocolate. If you want a parti, look for one but you will not find a parti yorkie to my knowledge on the YTCA.org website as breeders. Yes, we have not so reputable breeders in YTCA but if you adhere to the code of conduct and code of ethics you will NOT find a YTCA breeder selling parti's.....
I'm not talking show dogs here either just stating not every pup in the litter will be of show quality so hence pet quality for the pet owner :)

If you aren't opposed to a puppy being shipped to you, I can PM you some names of parti breeders. Just let me know. :)

Tammy

Welcome to Yorkie Talk!!!

Just wanted to let you know I have a litter of AKC Registered Carriers right now with a very nice pedigree. The two girls are reserved but I have a boy available :) Just let me know if your interested!

Sorry, I didn't mean that the way it came across. It was not my intent to make an offensive statement... and I apologize if if was taken offensively. I just wanted to suggest the YTCA as a place to start searching for a reputable breeder. And as far as a Parti, you'll have to look elsewhere because those breeders generally have dogs in the ring so you aren't going to find a Parti since the AKC has identified white coat as a DQ. I always encourage any puppy buyer to do extensive research on any breeder. I think some of the parti yorkies are beautiful, and I know first hand how well Livi can model. ;)

I sent you an email.

You must have missed this video

please see my clarifying statement.

Jeannie - I believe this is just wrong to post this on this thread.:mad: You imply all showbreeders as not reputable and that is simply not the truth. There are good breeders and bad breeders in the showring and as Hobby breeders. You might want to go read what happened because of this exposed and how many breeds have been helped.

And the Hobby breeders were doing the same thing if they were like you said...they breed for standard but just don't show. I personally believe you need to ask ADM to delete your post.

:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:How would you like it if the show breeders on here insinuated all hobby breeders are unreputable

Raymond Antonucci bred Yorkshire terriers under the prefix Parquins. He also bred and showed Parti's...I saw him show a Parti with my own eyes at an IBCA show.

I also agree you will not find Parti's on the YTCA website.

IBCA is not the same as an AKC show and I don't show IBCA only AKC and I go by the AKC/YTCA standard for showing and the YTCA added the DQ to keep the Parti out of the ring. I know Parquin and although he might have shown Parti's it's not correct in an AKC show nor is it to breed standard set forth by the AKC and the YTCA. Like all breeds there will be genetic faults within a breed and color is no exception :)
While I think the parti is pretty and cute I still stand behind my belief they shouldn't be bred :)

Donna

It's okay. :) I, too, have written things that maybe came across differently than intended.

The only thing implied is that not all show breeders are reputable breeders.

This video does imply that ALL show breeders are bad nor does it imply that all purebred dogs are bad. It only implies that some clubs refuse to change their standard eventhough they know the standard is causing health issues.

And that not all show breeders are breeding to better the breed as they will tell you they are.

When a person states that reputable breeders do not breed partis, that is a fair post to let people know that not all show breeders are reputable.

And this type of thinking is exactly why so many breeds have issues today. Breeding to the standard does not necessarily produce a better dog.

LOL like they have never done that??????????

If you watch the video, it in no way inplies that all show breeders are disreputable. It only sows that breeding to the standard does not always mean improving the breed.

It goes both ways and most of us have stated that not everyone is reputable when they say they are...AND I do not breed Parti's and I am a show breeder that I believe is pretty reputable but as I've said before please check me out I have nothing to hide :)

Donna

I"m not gonna argue with you as you are involved with Parti's and will not see that you are deivating away from the yorkie standard as you'll never see what I believe so we'll just agree to disagree with each other. Breeding Parti's doesn't mean you are producing a better dog as well :)

Donna

The breeds that showed to have problems werent even yorkies and you implied YTCA were having this problem where thats unproven and reaching. The only thing Ive seen the show breeders say is that they think partis should not be breed. If they are following the YTCA code of conduct they have to say that. I know you dont follow that and feel partis should be bred but you cant blame them for following the mother club code of conduct

thank you!!!!!

Let me add this....if you breed RIGHT you shouldn't have issues within the breed and that goes for every breed....I advocate breeding correctly which means all the health testing available, checking the knees, hips, heart ect....the yorkie breed doesn't have most of the issues that video is showing...and of course in EVERY breed you are going to have those that do NOT breed correctly to achieve what "THEY" think is correct. I"ve always said everyone interputs a standard differently. BUT if it's done correctly with the breed standard followed you shouldn't have a whole lot of issues. That video shows those that do NOT breed correctly and for the soundness of their breed.
It's just showing what we already know in those that are unreputable. But it's not what all show breeders represent as what some would love for everyone to think....Again, we will never get the respect we deserve <sigh>

Now I'm gonna throw a big twister in the conversation and not at your statement Donna........Is anyone aware of how the ability to register Parti's in AKC happened?

First let me please correct my typing..the shows were IABCA and I am fully aware they are not AKC. I can't say if he was reputable or not but I know his dogs were highly valued..even today. He was fully aware they couldn't be show in AKC but they could be registered as Yorkshire Terriers. The AKC only follows the guidelines of the parent club for showing but obvious it has been proven to the AKC these are Yorkies. Over 35 AKC breeds have the piebald gene in them and many breed clubs accept these dogs.

I am not a breeder but I have been very involved with the Biewer Yorkshire Terrier NOT THE BIEWER TERRIER. Nothing is black and white but the point I was making from the beginning is that just because you are YTCA DOES NOT make you reputable nor does being a Hobby breeder make you reputable.

I strongly disagree with the post Jeannie made and I believe it should be deleted.

Again the dog breeding world is not easy to understand nor is the show world. I understand your standards on the Yorkie but I have found few people that have really studied all of it.

Many of us have said time and time again...it is the breeder who is reputable not the organization they belong to.

I do. The two woman who fought for the Parti's via their pedigree's proved to the AKC by DNAing over 42 litters that these were Yorkies. AKC is all based on pedigree's and while no one knows for a fact what happened before all of those litters the same could be said for any purebred dog...along with the Yorkies. It was all done on trust in people who registered their litters. The line of dogs from these woman are probably more proven then most litters (lines) in the US of any breed.

If you go back and read AKC meetings you can read about this.
