    Biewer Terrier

    Biewer Terriers are relatively new to the dog world having come about when a recessive gene from a pair of Yorkshire Terriers produced a unique piebald puppy. Normally Yorkies are slate grey and tan or cream so this piebald puppy intrigued and delighted German breeders Werner and Gertrud Biewer who decided to start selectively breeding dogs with an end goal being to create more puppies with such an attractive coat colour.
