Not successful in finding a choc. - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I looked on puppyfind.com and there are a couple female choc. yorkies. They are sooooooooooooo cute. I saw 2 that were for about $1,200 or so and I want one of them soooo badly. So I am emailing the people and am going to see what happens....thanks ehunney!

But are there any health or physical problems that chocolate yorkies are more prone too? Or is it just simply the color?

I think it's just the color, I heard that there are no more health problems with them than there are with any other yorkie. I may be wrong but that's what I heard.

I don't know if there are health problems with the ones that are BRED TO BE chocolate. But in Izzie's case, she was just one of 5 in the litter and the only chocolate. That's why Izzie was spayed before going to her new home, she shouldn't be bred for her color.

No problem! I think chocolates are absolutely gorgeous and I hope you find your precious furgirl soon

I agree, they are beautiful. Good luck in your search. Those sound like fair prices.

chocolate color is a flaw in the genes. you should pay less not more

FlDebra · 11-09-2006, 06:23 AM

I think the chocolate Yorkies are cute as can be. But can they be registered? Even if they come from two AKC Yorkies? The reason I ask is there are only 4 choices of colors for Yorkies, right? Black and Gold, Black and Tan, Blue and Gold, and Blue and Tan. So, what do the papers say if the chocolate yorkies are registered with AKC? Anyone know?

Yes they can be registered. I had to send in front, back and side view pictures of Izzie along with her registration application and the registration came back as chocolate/tan.

Izzie is absolutly beautiful. She is so precious. She is doing really well, my Dad is taking care of her right now and he is in love! She is everything you could ever want in a Yorkie and sooooooooooooo much more, thanks to the loving and caring family who raised her...thanks Janet!

Here is 2 pictures (for now - more to come in the next week):

1. Me and Izzie on the way to airport (Indiana to NYC)
2. Izzie in her bed

She sure loves her blankie doesn't she Nicole? Thank you again for all the pictures you sent yesterday, I loved them, they just melted my heart. She looks so content and just so beautiful.

I know of a lady that has lots of chocolates, I don't know the price, but I doubt they are too high.

At one time partis were not supposed to be bred either, but now AKC does register them.

As long as there are no known health issues I see nothing wrong with breeding them and since people are willing to pay more breeders will charge more.
