A big Milestone for the partis

[Pinehaven]

The parti color option was under the "Markings" heading not coat color. I had to click the markings button and the options were either no markings or Parti Colored. My AKC printed receipt says she Parti colored too

Thanks Sue for clearing that up.

Sue, don't know if you read my post on this thread but I did try to register on-line last night and there was NO option for "parti color" on the markings drop down menu. Did you have to choose from the drop down menu for "coat color" first before options appeared on the markings menu? I was trying to register as a new puppy owner, is that where you started the registration process on-line?

I'm going to mail in Razz's application anyway, but just thought it was curious I couldn't find the "parti" classification.

That is great ! AKC is being more supportive of the Parti as time goes on.
This makes registration of the Parti color just like the registration of the other colors.

I have tried twice and there is no parti color option in the markings menu. Maybe it has something to do with who is registering the puppy.
Sue, was this one of your pups that you kept? Maybe that option is only available to the breeder? I am trying to register like Jen, as a new puppy owner.

That is pretty much the same reply (same guy) I got when I tried to register on-line last week. This was after I tried registering and couldn't.....he emailed me to ask why I didn't complete the registration and then answered my reply with the same response you got.

Just heard from him again after I requested more info and told him that I knew someone who infact did register a parti online. This is what he said...

"It was a coincidence. When we manually process a registration with a non-standard color, we have to turn on the master list of color options. The person who registered online yesterday did so at the same time that we were also processing a parti-yorkie registration (or the agent forgot to turn it off at the end of our processing)."

So there you have it. Sue was at the right place at the right time so to speak. The rest of us have to continue sending in our applications with 2 pics.

Yes, this was a puppy that I bred and kept. Maybe if you are registering a puppy that you've purchased, you still have to submit photos??

Obviously someone at AKC is wrong, there was a parti color option when I registered online. I must have triple checked that I clicked on the Parti-Color selection before I hit the submit button, and when I saw "Markings: Parti-Color" listed in black and white on my receipt (I highlighted it in red in my post), I knew it wasn't a dream.

Does anyone have any new registration forms. It should show on there.

I just registered a litter, so I should have some in a few days.

I can see where it is possible that not all of the employees have the updated information.

Personally I don't believe the employee that said it is an option that they can trun on and off.

this is what Zane posted on FB.


Woo hoo, AKC has finally put a code for Parti color Yorkies in the online system. The code is 038 and goes in the markings box. No more sending in photos on black and tan partis or blue and tan partis. Still have to on the golden partis though.
