They originated in Germany. On the pedigrees, they are called a Biewer Yorkshire ala Pom Pon. In Germany, when I purchased the dogs, they were considered a variant of the Yorkshire Terrier. This was in 2006, just a few short years ago. It was only when they came to this country and some groups decided they wanted to get these beautiful creatures into the AKC did the NEED for them to become something OTHER than what they are develop. Now, magically, they are something else...poof! :wink2:
If you care to look at my website, feel free to do so.. I'm sure when you see the sires and dams on there, you will have NO question as to the breed of these dogs.
I believe, the parti yorkie does not have a standard at the present time where the Biewer does.. actually, we seem to get a new one all the time ...
Diana :animal-pa | The WRV is the only registry in Germany that I know of that has Biewer Yorkshire a la Pom Pon on the registration. If there are others, please share them with us. All the other registries call them a Biewer Yorkshire Terrier a la Pom Pon including ACH, the original club that Mr. Biewer registered his dogs with. Why do you think he did that?
We fully understand that you don't have Biewer Terriers. The Biewer Terrier is a purebred, breed of it's own. The BTCA has proven that they are not just a color variation of the Yorkie and THAT is why we call them Biewer Terriers. What BTCA member told you differently?
As you stated, you are breeding Yorkies and tri colored Yorkies together. I believe you are also going by a standard that the Mi-Ki breeders wrote, not Mr. Biewer.
Now, some people breed Yorkies to a variation of the Yorkie and magically they are something else. POOF!
As far as AKC goes, all the clubs are submitting for recognition and there are only 2 of them that have changed their names for AKC. The BTCA changed it's name in 2006 before submitting to AKC.
We all submitted to ARBA at the same time and who did they chose as the best representation of the breed? |
