Number one piebald yorkie the history and origin of the Beaver Terrier can be traced back to Mr. and Mrs. Beaver who were breeding Yorkshire Terriers for years. In january 1984 a piebald party colored Yorkshire Terrier puppy was born to Mr. and Mrs. Beaver. The puppy's name was Schniefelkön von Friedheck and it was the first documented piebald yorkie and this little pup was the start of the Beaver Terrier breed. Number two purebred breed Schniefelkön von Friedheck was sold to a breeder in Germany and was used as a foundation dog of the Beaver Terrier breed, which was recognized in Germany in 1986. So the Beaver Terrier is basically the same breed as a yorkie with the recessive piebald gene, but they are recognized by some kennel clubs as a purebred dog rather than just a variety of the yorkie. Today in 2020 the Beaver Terrier is already recognized in USA, Lithuania, Russia, Belarus, Finland, Moldova, Poland, Croatia and some other countries. Number three recognition since there is a large demand for these cute dogs some breeders are trying to recreate the breed by crossbreeding the yorkie with some multicolored dogs, but those dogs should not be named as beaver terriers. When the beaver terrier club of america began tracing pedigrees they found many discrepancies which is why it was almost impossible to recognize the breed based on its pedigree. This is a reason why the beaver terrier is the first dog breed that was recognized as a breed through scientific data rather than researching pedigrees. Number four color the beaver terrier is three colored dog in white black and tan color combination. The white is the most important and legs tip of the tail chest and belly must be white.

Overall this is a great companion dog for people who like outdoors and that have time for daily walks and proper play time with their dog. Number six training the beaver terrier is bright and intelligent dog and they do get new commands very quickly. On the other hand they are also independent dogs and they know how to be stubborn which is definitely a good thing for hunting but not so much for obedience training.
