It is just like for Yorkies, you have to buy your breeder. Purebreds (like Yorkies) can come from backyard breeders with health problems and issues just like any mix. It doesn't matter WHAT dog you buy, it matters what breeder you get them from. Buy from a bad breeder and you run the risk of getting a sick puppy. Period. Before you go running around comparing backyard breeder pups to the Biewer. Do your research. They aren't "Biewer Yorkies" by the way, they are Biewer *Terriers.* Related to, but separate from, the Yorkie. Rescues are always a good choice. No matter what. | |

| There are (I think) 3 different Biewer clubs in America. Here's the links for them. You will see that 2 state that the Biewer is a separate breed from the Yorkshire, while one uses the term 'Biewer Yorkies". Biewer Terrier Club of America, Inc. Biewer Breed Club of America index One curious thing. I see Biewers in the Yorkshire Terrier Nursery forum and also the Yorkshire Terrier For Sale forum. If they're a separate breed, shouldn't they be in the "Our Yorkies Brothers and Sisters" forum? Just asking...

I knew it was pronounced "Biva." However, I must admit that I feel silly saying "Biva" because I feel like I don't sound German enough, haha. | |

| I see. I wasn't aware of the controversy. Everything I have read has been consistent. However, thank you for making me aware |

In addition, as others have expressed, some feel the Biewer is just a different colored YT. I'm certainly not the authority and I'm not the only one with an opinion. My opinion that they are a separate breed, is my own. However, if you'd like to contest that Biewer posts be moved, I'm sure you could send a message to Admin. They decide how to organize the posts after all. The point of my post wasn't to start a debate on Biewer vs. Yorkie and how they relate to each other. It was to refute the post linking Biewers directly to BYB's/mills and poor breeding because I do not feel that is fair. All in all, I love ALL pups. Mixes, purebreds, Yorkies, Biewers, Maltese, Poms, Labs, etc. They are all great and deserve love and affection. However, it is always buyer beware no matter what kind of pup you are buying! | |

| I have a dear friend that raises the Bewier Yorkies. They are yorkies, NOT crossed with any other breed. They come from 2 Yorkies that carry a recessive or mutated gene. And they were pulled aside to raise puppies to get this coloration. The ones my friend raises do have the docked tails. They were brought here from Germany. They are precious. They are like the yorkies we are use to except for our coloring. HUGS, Wanda |

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | Some of us call them Biewers. They are a toy breed, recognized in the U.S. as a rare breed dog, in the rare breed show venues. |
