Is a Parti and a Biewer the same thing? We are on the final stretch run to getting a Yorkie as a pet for our home. We are interested in the more white ones mostly because they are more unique, IMO, and will differentiate her a bit from the other Yorkie's in the neighborhood. I have been researching Biewer but recently a number of local breeders have advertised "AKC Parti Yorkie". Is Part and Biewer synonymous? Thanks! |

Check out "Snow Blue Yorkies" site for DETAILED explanations on both types of Yorkies. |
Basic overview The Biewer, named after the founder,originated in Germany in the mid 80's. Over the years they are selectively bred and a standard was set. The standard is similar to the Yorkie, but calls for specific color placement. White paws, tip of the tail, symetrical coloring on the head and face, etc and no docking of tail. It has been recognized as a separate breed by some organization and can be shown in some venues. Not in the AKC Partis are tri-colored Yorkies. They can be registered with but not shown in AKC. Can be shown in some other venues. There is no standard set for them that allows for the non-standard coloring, but typically, most Parti breeders follow the YT standard with color as the exception.
