"Parti Yorkies" What's your opinion - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Welcome aboard! Your fur baby is a cutie-pie. I, too, own a parti girl (Livi) and also a parti carrier so I understand the love of the tri-color Yorkie.

BEAUTIFUL!!!! Congrats!!!!

Thanks for all your honest opinions. I think they are selling higher then they would need too as well. but all new things usually do. I'm sure the price will come down like everything else does as well. But I still think they are exceptionally beautiful and are worth it. As far as a fault for the parties, didn't all dogs begin some where? What's wrong with a new one every once in a while????? Just my opinion.

By supporting breeder who breed to standard, you are protecting the breed as a whole. The parti color is a fault, and while many people think it's a "cute" fault, breeders who purposely breed for it and increase the price for this fault this are misleading the public. It's actually very easy to produce the parti color if you have two parti dogs, in fact, you can't produce anything but parties. On the other hand, it is possible for two standard yorkies to produce both standard and parti yorkies. Good breeders will sell the parti to a pet only home, and don't charge more for it. I also recommend that people avoid supporting "one trait" breeders like those who breed for size or color alone.

I"m glad you brought this up because it makes me so mad that breeders charge more when if the pup had say an underbite or some other fault..chances are they'd sell it maybe even a tad cheaper..
on another note..i do tink the parti's are pretty.

Oh I love your babies. I have both Yorkie and Biewer and they are both amazing. What are their names? Also welcome to YT! And, who cares what people think? You love him/her and that's all that matters.

You are absolutely right. The variety of dogs that we have is due to a few rebels going out on a limb and breeding for different traits.

The parti gene is part of the original yorkie makeup and although some believe that to breed for it is hurting the yorkie breed, I believe that breeding to deliberately eliminate any natural gene is also detrimental to the yorkie breed.

I believe there is room in this world for the entire color spectrum of yorkies. As for the higher prices. If the yorkie breeders had not bred to eliminate this color, over the years, it would be just as common as the standard color and the price would not be so high.

We parti breeders, charge more because we had to pay more. I certainly wish I could have bought mine for about 1/3 of what I paid for them.

The price is coming down as more and more breeders are breeding them. The newest color now is the golden parti.

I see besides bringing us more variety with parti's, you are also breeding Havashires (Havanese/Yorkie cross pups).
