I think most of us are sick of how the "color" threads turn out.

You had asked me a question about "different" parti lines and the research that's been done in each different line, to insure there are no health issues. My reply to you was that many of the "different" lines seem to all be descendants of one dog.

That information, and the information I posted earlier about what the breeder of this dog had told AKC during the Nikko's Parti investigation in the late
1990's, I only learned of in the past 2 months from researching farther back into pedigrees and from a letter written by one of the parties involved in the investigation.

The one common dog that is seen in the Nikko line and many of the other "outcross" parti lines is Ch Wildweir Pomp N Circumstance. Now, if this dog was a parti carrier, and has passed on the parti gene for nearly 50 years through his offspring, why is it so hard to believe that the parti gene was not passed down to him by other carriers who lived 50-60 years prior to his birth?

Yes, I read your response the first time you posted it. Sorry I didn't take the time to thank you for answering or acknowledge your response.

That does not, however, change my response and suspicion as to "where everyone went."

Hi Sue! Just wanted to say your posts are informative as usual. I for one hear what you are saying, and Im still stuck on if 2 of the dogs that originally created the yorkshire terrier are extinct, how can there even begin to be and argument on where this gene comes from? Maybe its been here all along? Kinda like how in my family we are American Indian (my kids father is also) as far back as we can track everyone has blackish brown hair and eyes so dark you can barely see our pupils. Yet I end up with Yellowish eyes, and my son comes to me with lighter hair and beautiful green eyes. Im going assume those genes were somewhere in our lines, but alllllllll my family on both sides has NO idea where. Happens Your avatar is very nice

Honestly, I didn't know it was such a point of contention among yorkie fanciers, or I wouldn't have posted about it. I just don't know much about Yorkshire Terriers, Biewer Terriers, or any kind of toy breed really, so I figured someone on here would know...

I was curious.

The ignor list is a WONDERFUL THING!!LOL
Glad you asked the question though. Us died in the wool Yorkie fanciers do have strong opinions on color and back up the YTCA standard 100%. The parti people, choco lovers, and blonds will not change the standard. There have been way to many unethical and irresponsible breeders in the past and now its impossible to DNA or unravel what damage that has been done to this breed. I suggest reading articles and books by the Gordon/Bennett twins. They were the gurus of this breed and responsible, for the most part, bringing them recognised in this country. Their entire life was Yorkies!! No one has done more research about them that they have and no one has as much hands on experience than they did.
