Discussions can get quite heated when people start discussing yorkies and biewers. Maybe the lady was referring to a maltese. On another group that's how we jokingly refer to the maltese that some of the members have. They kid around and call them that themselves. |
thanks alot Julz, I didn't know that. Things aren't muddy for me now ;) |

Now according to the Yorkie people and the Biewer people these are indeed not the same breed. I have seen huge fights online break out over this subject. In Germany the breed is Biewer and has no relation to the yorkie its, its own breed. They say the yorkie is a yorkie and a biewer is a biewer and NOT a tri colored yorkie |
genetically they are the same except for the piebald gene. biewers came from yorkies. In germany they are in a breed class of their own and they are trying to establish that here too. But to me that doesn't mean they aren't the same. its like any other breed that has 'subclasses' due to its coat or coloring. ie: rough collie - smooth collie; wire, smooth, long haired dauschund; cocker spaniels; beagles (size); etc... would you say that a 13 inch beagle is an entirely different breed then the 15 inch bealgle? i wouldn't. both are beagles, just different sizes. now that's just my opinion |
