BIRO is a Chocolate (liver) Biewer Yorkshire Terrier caused by a recessive black gene that is of extraordinary chocolate color.
It was in the winter of 2004 on December 1st when the first BIRO Yorkshire Terrier puppy was born, a female called "Art of Highclass Relight My Chocolate Fire", to the Art of Highclass Kennel of famous German breeders Roberto Krah and J. Lutz. It was this female dog that became the first registered representative of the BIRO Yorkshire Terrier breed in the World. The mother of the puppies was "Alisha vom Wasserschlößchen" that gave birth to four puppies. Three of the puppies were Biewer Yorkshire terriers, and the fourth puppy was a female BIRO Yorkshire terrier, who had a chocolate pattern on a white coat instead of the typical black/blue pattern on a white background with a tricolored head.

The 'ideal' Maltese should have black points and halos. Halos is not mentioned in any Maltese breed standard but it is actually there, just in a different wording - black points. This refers to the eye rims, paw pads, nose and lips and they should be a solid black without any other color (not fading, pink or otherwise). Lot's of pet Maltese dogs do not have 'perfect' black points which are ideal for the show ring and highly sought after in the competition crowd.
Halos - are solid pitch black, that circle around the entire eye without any fading or disconnection. They give the appearance of having large eyes and look like the Maltese is wearing black liquid eyeliner. These solid dark rims are not as common as you would think.
No Halos - a Maltese does indeed have colored eye rims, however, they are not a deep black color as can be seen on the nose. They appear to look a dark grey in appearance and don't have the look of wearing black liquid eyeliner.

Black Schnauzers- Just as the description implies, are entirely black, however some may have a small white patch on their chests. Black and Salt and Pepper are the most common Schnauzer colors and then Silver and Black followed by all the other colors of the Schnauzer.

The Parti-Yorkshire Terrier
Parti Yorkies have been around since the 1800's and thought to have come from the influence of the Maltese breed, tho that has never been acknowledged for the Parti. While some modern breeders still believe Parti-Yorkies are not 'true' Yorkies and the breed should not have a gene for white coloring, most of this breed's fan(s) have accepted the Parti with open arms. In fact, there are some claims that the majority of AKC Yorkshire Terrier registrations are now for "Parti" colored dogs. Note* The AKC began to accept the Parti-Yorkshire Terrier in '2000'.

The Chocolate Parti also known as a Liver Parti Miniature Schnauzer is because of a gene dilution of black which give this dog its brown based color. Though considered a "rare" color, it has existed in original German breeding lines since the 1800's when the breed was first developed.
