The Biewer (pronounced Bee-vair) Yorkshire Terrier a la Pom Pom, is generally thought of as a toy dog originating in Germany due to an unnatural genetic recessive trait. It is not recognized by any formal or major kennel club. Mr. Werner and Mrs. Gertrud Biewer raised, bred and showed Yorkshire Terriers for twenty years. On January 20, 1984 one of their dogs gave birth to a blue, white, and gold puppy they later named Schneeflocken von Friedheck. This was the first recorded tri-colored Yorkshire Terrier. This started what is now known as the “Biewer Terrier.” While even after twenty-five years of the Biewer’s existence, it is still not recognized by any major kennel club, but that does not stop many adamant people in creating a club centered around them. There is only one club that has the support and membership of Mrs. Gertrud Biewer and although she no longer breeds, she maintains active involvement with the BTCA board members in their efforts to establish the Biewer Terrier as a breed of its own. Mrs. Biewer considers the BTCA, Inc. to be the authority and protector of the Biewer breed. BBCA = Biewer Breed Club of America BTCA = Biewer Terrier Club of America CBC = Canadian [ - ]
