The point is that the white is a major fault and there is a handful of parti breeders that don't want accept that. There are many breeds that have fault colors that can't be shown. Why should the YTCA make the parti yorkie an exception when the YTCA feels they do not meet the standard? I don't feel it is necessary for the YTCA to call them designer dogs, parti are just yorkies with a color fault. How the parti came about is debatable.

As for AKC being satisfied, as I explained earlier, it does not take much to satisfy AKC. It would be quite easy for someone to slip in another breed into the yorkie gene pool and not get caught.

It really does not matter to me one way or another if the parti yorkie is allowed in the show ring. The majority of the parti yorkies I have seen pictures of do not meet the standard in many other ways besides color. I suppose that is why some want to bring in champion bloodline yorkies that have the proper structure and coat texture.

I have a question, I am just innocently wondering.

Why then doesn't one just work for a whole new breed recognition instead of aiming to get the Yorkshire Terrier Standard changed or the acceptance of the YTCA? Neither the Parti or Biewer really look like a Yorkie anyway.

Also, why wouldn't one want to preserve the look of the breed we originally fell in love with?

I love the Yorkshire Terrier the way it is. If I wanted another breed or different look I would have gone in that direction.:confused:

We both know the pinkish toenails do not always turn black and we know there are people who color them black before entering a show ring. We also know people who will dye the white on the chest or chin before entering a show ring.

That you can sit on here and call all parti breeders BYB, not reputable, being in it just for money, speaking out of both sides of the mouth(what kind of comment is that?)

I've never spoken out of both sides of my mouth on this subject. If one says a Partie was born out of these lines you are saying I can't take it as gospel because I haven't personally seen it so I have to take it as hearsay plain and simple...

That is the AKC pedigree look at the color of the dog Hylan Diva's H R it says Black and gold Parti-color

All I would say is that in your futile attempt to legitimize parti color yorkies you're doing untold harm to the breed. And for that alone I have no respect for anyone involved in breeding parti colored yorkies. Whether this all started with a accidental breeding at the Streamglen Kennel in the UK many years ago or whether people have just cleverly mixed breeds to get the white patches on the sides, legs and head, we'll never know. Way too much time has passed for DNA or Mars testing to prove anything. But in the future all YTCA can do is damage control and hope to preserve the integrity of the breed.

so what's your point? I"ve seen registration papers marked blue and gold and the dog was black and tan was wasn't going to change to blue and gold...so that still doesn't show me anything...again it's all hearsay until you've seen the dog.
However, in the yorkie registration it does allow for black and tan but regarding Parti's its a color "marking". Color and markings are two seperate catagories.

I don't see your point but I'm sure the owner has pics posted of the dogs on their website.

BTW...I took care of the person that stole my pic and it was taken down...
