"Parti Yorkies" What's your opinion 1 Attachment(s) So I bought Parti Yorkies. Now what? I thought this was the coolest thing since traditionals. I was wondering what the yorkie community thinks of these sweet little dogs???? Please give me our honest opinion.:animal-pa |
Shouldn't Matter I think they are beautiful dogs and would love to have one myself. I guess you are wondering if some are judgmental about exploiting this "fault"?? I don't think so on this list. Some of the most frequent, most knowledgeable posters have Parties (not sure of plural spelling). My 'traditional' Yorkie is 9 1/2 pounds and a little too long and there is no cold shoulder about that either. I think most on this list are just happy to have this community of people who love their dogs enough to seek a email group to talk about them!! Really cute puppy by the way. |
I love them and many here do too. Some day I'll own one or a Brewier Welcome, you're going to love it here!!! |
have you done a search on here? This is a very controversial subject among some of our members and there are many threads and posts about it. |
I think your parti girl is gorgeous!!!!!!:aimeeyork:animal-pa:animal-pa |

I'm a stickler to breeding to standard, while I think that it's perfectly fine to have a dog that doesn't meet standard, I'm against changing standard to suit yourself. For example, I love floppy ears, but a yorkie breeder who breeds for this trait would be unethical, there's nothing wrong with buying a dog with floppy ears as long as you didn't pay more than you would for a dog that met standard. 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 think it's great that you adore you're lil parti pup. I'm a traditionalist and exhibitor....while I think all dogs are lovely and sweet and great. I just don't agree with breeding anything outside the standard on purpose and charging more for it because they convince the public that it is a rare colored yorkie..... |
I think parti yorkies look very pretty but easily exploited for money. Over here the average price for a tradition yorkie is about £450-£500. I saw the first ever litter of parties advertised on a web-site advertised at £1,200. Almost 3 times as much, they even said in the add 'Very popular in America', purely a selling ploy. I also saw an older boy advertised as carrying the F1 splitter gene, Most people in this country wouldn't understand what this meant, I only did because of this site, but this little guy was nowhere near standard so anyone using him at stud would only be doing it in the hope of producing parties and alot of money. |
very pretty |
She is a very pretty furbaby:) |
I think parti's are gorgeous and I would love to have one, but I am not willing to spend over 1,000 for one thats for sure. |
Your girl is a doll! |
Oh she is so cute..... can you send her to me ;) what a pretty puppy! |
Your baby is very beautiful :) |
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. :) Tammy |
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. |

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. Attachment 291324 |

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