Heck, I have also seen them for sale fairly recently by breeders here on YT for as much as 4500. Now whether or not these breeders are getting the prices they are advertising for them...who knows? Guess you'd have to contact them to find out. But the higher price tags are certainly still there, no question about it. I would think that the consistent pricing that is seen reflects the amount that people are consistently paying...

I see "standard" colored yorkies priced these prices all the time on petfinder.

A few comments about the link that you posted.

Goldenray talks of the Gordon sisters and their book, “The Complete Yorkshire Terrier.” Even the Gordon sisters had their own share of parti color showing up in their litters. During the AKC Parti investigation in the late 1990’s, one of the Gordon sisters told AKC that they had more parti pups than Nikkos kennel’s had but that they “got rid” of them.

Goldenray says that “The only way that gene could come into existence is for breedings to have occurred somewhere along the line with Maltese or Shih Tzu. My personal theory is that both are great possibilities.” There are numerous books and writing from the late 1800’s that say it was felt that the Maltese WAS indeed used to breed to short coated scotch terriers to increase the length of coats.

When talking about “The Stockkeeper in 1887,” it doesn’t tell you that Kershaw’s Kitty was solid blue with no tan markings, she had on saddle, she had no tan. Since there was very little record keeping in those days, we don’t know what colors the parents, grandparents or great grandparents were of these dogs who began this breed. Even if they were correctly colored, it doesn’t mean that they didn’t harbor hidden genes for other colors.

The article also says that “the Biewers can never be shown in AKC events as they are not registered with an organization acceptable in the US.” Well, never say never cause as we learned a few posts above, that they have been accepted into a foreign registry that AKC does
Recognize (and thus will allow registry transfers into AKC).

This is a man made breed and the genes that some of our dogs inherited may not be the ideal genetic code that the YTCA wishes it could be.

I have wondered what the actual lineage is, since I have never seen one. But, this is all very interesting.

Would 'parti people' like to see it as a variety of the Yorkshire terrier? I can't see the possibility of a parti yorkie ever competing against a 'standard' yorkie.[/QUOTE]



That is exactly what this parti breeder would like to see. A variety class for the parti yorkie. Just as the American cocker has three color variety classes. The three varieties do not show in the same ring until group.

I also believe the keepers of the parti have a long way to go to get the parti up to the standard of today's show yorkie. IMO...when and if we start breeding better examples of the breed...just maybe the YTCA will take the parti seriously. I just hope and pray it's in my lifetime, so I can show one.

The price tag often put on Partis is an old issue...nothing new. Not sure what point there is to prove there.
