The breed characteristics of the Biewer Terrier
A Biewer Terrier looks like a tri-colored Yorkshire Terrier. The white has been further established by breeding selection, so that the dogs carry beautiful and evenly distributed color markings.
Neither the FCI nor the German Terrier Club have recognized the breed to date. In the USA, however, these dogs will most likely be officially recognized by the American Kennel Club in the coming years.
