Splitter Biewer/Parti 4 Attachment(s) Okay I have been talking to a few of you about Diggy beiong a possible splitter or carrier of piebald gene. I explained his white patches getting bigger and the placement of patches. Well they are STILL getting bigger. A lot of you had a hard time saying what you thought due to pics....So This is Mr.Diggy AT 15 weeks, 3.1 pounds. Make sure you click on the thumbnail to make larger I tried to keep the files bigger giving you a better view. Also my vet said really thinks he is carrier/splitter he has way to much white to be considered just a small white patch as you see in alot of Yorkies. He is AKC and both parents were on premesis. He and Bella have same parents. I post a pic of He and Bella so you can compare her color to him. I know its blurry he was busy stealing a kiss from her!!! Let me know what you think....I get tired of not know what to answer when people say Why is he so white??? :rolleyes: |
Love the coloring, what a cutie. |
i have no intelligent answer for you but he sure is cute :) |
Well thank you very much. :D :D He is a unique one....unique and trying......lol He is in those terrible 2's!!! |
I don't know either, but he is sooo stinkin cute, I just want to squeeze him. |
diggy Thank you GF!!!! lol Notice ears down yesterday up today??? He's a goofball!!! |
my sasha had a large patch of white on her chest and under her chin so it could just be hes the same. hes a little cutie:) |
I don't really know about the partis and all that.. but I think he may be a carrier.. that is definately no color in a yorkie I have ever seen.. at first (before I clicked on the picture) I just thought he'll be a white/slive yorkie.. but after clicking on it.... hmmmm:confused: |
I forgot to mention.... he is so stinkin cute:) |
I am not sure if that means anything or not. With the exception of Louie who is black and gold, all of my blue/gold dogs are almost completely white chested. Would be good to know tho. |
Yes, I just ask out of curiosity, I think he is just a sexy beast either way lol All the lil girlies look at that white and say.....hmmmmm here did you get that at??? lol I am not breeding him either way at this point, and yes, after asking other owners of Diggys siblings....some had the small white patch that is common....This white covers his whole under belly, chin, eyes, chest and legs. Its a lot more than I have ever seen and researched on various yorkie websites. Like I said either way he's just my lil man....:p I was told the only way to know for sure is to breed him, and Im not educated enough to do that so just not comfy with that, plus I dont know if he is "breeder material" per standards. :aimeeyork |
Hmmm.... First of all, he is a cute fluffy baby...:love-hug1 :heart79: About your question, I don't know what to say...:idontknow Well, I'm having sort of the same doubt... I notice a few white hairs on Maggie's back and they are about 1 inche long, so I don't know if that means anything...:confused: |
I dont know but he sure is cute! |
4 Attachment(s) OMG! Hi Twinkie! You're not going to believe this, but Gizmo has a large white patch also! Was Diggy really dark at first? The breeder almost kept Gizmo actually because he father had similar coloring and turned a beautiful steel blue and gold. So who knows? The first pic is Gizzy at about 6 weeks. The second at 8 or 9 weeks. The third at 10 weeks (Yes, my son did this and spelled his name wrong...lol). The 4th is at 5 weeks. Gizzy is on the right (darker one) and his littermate is on the left. I will try to get one with his white patch more visible. |
1 Attachment(s) It is beginning to look like he is a carrier. Here is a picture of the carrier that is mother to my parti girls. Attachment 127110 |
Nope Actually He has stayed the same .....he always had the white but a small patch on chest and lil on the chin. Now its covered his whole underbelly his eyes, legs, etc. Im thinking hmmmm this is supposed to be going away....its spreading as he get bigger! its snow white too not the light tan, silver or gray they commonly go through this is white! Doesnt matter to me either way I am just curious if anyone else had experianced this and what thier baby ended up looking like. :aimeeyork |

OMG HOW BEAUTIFUL......I just had a big ole chill go thru me....thats what I pictured him looking like but have never seen it!!!! Thanks you sooooo much for posting that....Im feeling like he is normal again!!! I get asked CONSTANTLY WHat is he?? WHy is he white? Well, he cannot be full bred....(followed by the ever intelligent) Is he a teacup??? Oh you think there is a teacup yorkie yet want to tell me mine isnt even a yorkie...hmmm you should be a BREEDER!!! lmao geesh Do you have more pics of her??? and some more stories about her...Id love to hear more!!!! She is gorgeous!!! |
She really is beautiful! |
I have heard that a lot of carriers will also have "ticking" on their bellies...does he have this? It is like freckles on his tummy. |
I think he is just beautiful, I just looked all mine over and they have a small amout of white on there chest. except for joey / he is all gold & black. |
ummm I know this sounds kinda personal...but his ding ding is black and so are his lil "jewels" the res is white.... |

OK that post didn't make sense. I started to say that I didn't have any more pictures, then I remember she had sent more in an email, so I went to find them. |
Leave it to the other Paula to bring the "ding-ding" into the conversation... |

4 Attachment(s) Here are some better pics (taken today) of Gizmo's white patches. I don't see any of the "freckles" mentioned. I don't think his white is as prevalent as Diggy's, but I think it's cute. The last pic was just thrown in because I thought the tongue was cute! lol |
If I were you I would just wait and see! These babies are always changing colors! It would be really cool if he does end up having the gene! He is one cute furball! |
All I can do is wait, your right. Like I said it's not really a big deal....It's more so I can answer when people ask why he is white and is he full bred. I mean yes, he is full, I just dont know what to say when they say why is he white? I think I am just going to start explaning the piebald gene, and he is a possible carrier. It just felt funny saying it before when I really knew nothing about it. But again...YT has totally educated me on it and I am a work in progress! Thanks all for your opinions and keep posting your babies I love the pics! :thumbup: |

Your Gizzys White looks like Diggy's sisters white, of the 3 sissys Ada, Bella, and Zoe all have turned tan except Ada...she is almost 2 and still has a lot of white in her chest, not near as much as Diggy but more than I see on standards. Gizzy and Diggy look a lot alike! How funny (and cute) :D |
