Parti Yorkie History For those of you who question where the piebald gene came from. I found this very interesting. |
2 Attachment(s) I don't know - but we sure get a lot of compliments on Jeanie's colouring, and I don't think it's standard.........she's much darker than most (pics attached to show what I mean) |

Gee, I'm embarrassed, it needs to be updated ... I wrote it prior to the DQ rule. Maybe after my daughter's wedding - :2omg:12 DAYS FROM NOW :2omg:- I'll have time to update the article. |

I personally love all the colors, a yorkie is a yorkie regardless of color. I can very well see how a maltese could have been added to the mix. They have dark pigment on their nose, eye rims and pads on their feet. But they can also have dark pigment elsewhere as well. I have a male maltese who has dark pigment on his muzzle as well as his ears which is common with those with great pigment. Have you ever seen some of the morkies some sell? I have seen quite a few that have a parti coloring to them when the parents were a standard yorkie and a stardard maltese. Whether or not a maltese did make the parti gene possible I don't know but I can very well see how it could be possible. |

Good luck on the wedding. My last daughter just got married 3 weeks ago. I'm so glad that's over. |

My mentor gave my daughter a Maltese puppy as a wedding gift a few months ago, and when she baths her, you can see darker pigmented areas on her pink skin. Her coat is all white but she has light skin freckles too. I've seen some parti colored morkies that have the same markings as our parti yorkies and I've seen people advertise that the pups are from a maltese x yorkie cross but the yorkie was also a parti gene carrier in order for the parti color to be produced. |

DQ rule - YTCA's color Disqualification Rule only allowing blue and tan dogs to show (supposidly black and tan adults will be disqualified now in the ring - prior to the DQ rule, black and tan were not automatically DQ'd for being off standard in color). Thanks for the good wishes with the wedding ... I'm looking forward to the day after the wedding when I can REST! :-) You've been a busy lady, a wedding 3 weeks ago and 2 new beautiful grand babies ... I'm tired just thinking about it! :-) Congrats to you and your family! |

When they are born, a lot of them have THE palest of tan markings on their head. This grows out and is all white by the time they go to their forever homes. |
I love the looks of the Biewers, the Parti's and the Black and Tans with soot faces. |
if thats what someone wants and its loved great. but they should also know its not standared. i love to see all the different yorkies. |
