The Biewer is also known as the Biewer Yorkshire Terrier a la Pom Pon, the Biewer Yorkie or just the Biewer. It is a fairly new toy breed that originated in Germany in 1984 when a puppy with unique, white markings appeared in a litter of Yorkshire terriers owned by Gertrude and Werner Biewer. The breed was instantly liked by the two breeders and they started selective breeding to produce more.
The dog has balance, toy-sized frame covering in long straight hair that usually comes in stripped patterns of black and white, brown and white and blue and white. The head of this dog is flat with medium sized muzzle, expressive eyes and a pair of erect. V-shaped ears. If left natural, the Biewer terrier's tail is carried low or slightly above horizontal.
The breed is NOT recognized by AKC or any other major club.
