| Golden Yorkies, Parti Yorkies, Chocolate Yorkies, this concerns me. Take a look. I found this website: Yorkie puppies for sale,Parti Yorkies,Chocolate, Golden Yorkie Pups and Dogs for sale. They advertise selling specially coloured yorkies. Doesn't this seem like a ripoff? Can't people just be happy with the perfect little babies that occur in nature instead of messing with genetics and causing a nightmare for future generations of pups? It seems like this place only wants to make money, not breed quality babies that will go to a good home. I don't know, it makes me think of something Paris Hilton would google if she was looking for another fashion accesory dog to dump off when she got tired of it. I'm upset now.

| yeah i dont get why people will go out of their way to have something "different" than others... i mean if it happens by accident then yeah its understandable because all puppies deserve a good home.. but why breed them on purpose? sorry but i assume it is a woman doing this and she is a complete idiot that probably only cares about money |

| Usually if someone is advertising it like it's some special and rare quality, they are just trying to make as much money as possible, and they don't really know anything about the breeds they are selling. They prey on the people that don't know a lot about the breed so they can make even more off of them, making them think that there is something "special" about the dog. It's sad. Wish there was more that could be done to end things like this. Some people are just so cruel.

| This is from the YTCA website: An Important Note About Color in Yorkshire Terriers The most distinctive characteristic of an adult Yorkshire Terrier is its long blue and tan silk coat. A puppy is born black and tan, but the only recognized colors for adults when registering with AKC are blue and gold, blue and tan, black and gold, or black and tan. The AKC Breed Standard and YTCA Code of Ethics do not recognize any other color dogs than noted above. This includes all gold, born blue, liver (also known as red or chocolate), and parti-colors. One of the reasons for avoiding breeding "off-colored" Yorkies is because it could be a genetic defect that may affect the dog's health. Some health problems can include, but aren't limited to, severe skin problems, allergies, total hair loss and in some cases long-term illness and/or death. . A responsible breeder will not intentionally breed for undesirable traits. On very rare occasions, a breeder will have a puppy born with a color anomaly. That puppy should undergo careful health screenings before being placed in a spay/neuter (non-breeding) home. A breeder should certainly never promote these deviations as being desirable or rare.
