| Parti Yorkie Gene? If my yorkie is a purebred (we have the papers) is it possible, she could carry the parti gene? She has little white hairs on the underneath of her coat all along her back a white chest, and white head I never understood until someone told me about parti-yorkies hmmmmm so that means if when she's bred, if the other yorkie is a carrier we could end up having a parti ( ha ha ha, that sounds so funnnny) |

| Are you sure that the "white" color isn't silver? Hobbs' whole head and chest turned silver before the rest of his body. Just a thought. |

| Breaking white is merely changing color from black to (silver or white) to tan or gold. A parti-color will have identifable ticking on his/her skin and or in their mouth. If I recall didnt you get your puppy from a show breeder, did she not explain how a puppy's coat breaks as they mature??

| no where we got her the breeder had sold her to this local pet shop (not like regular pet stores, they take puppies from breeders who are having trouble selling them, and sell them.) But yes she did come from a show breeder, so the pet store didn't really say anything about that so what does it mean if her back is having white does that mean her coat is changing colour? |
