A Golddust Yorkshire Terrier is a Yorkie with a soft, golden champagne-colored coat instead of the classic black-and-tan. Unlike standard Yorkies (who are born dark and lighten as they age), Golddust Yorkies are born this golden color and keep it. They're an uncommon and beautiful variation — and a Designer Yorkies specialty.

How Golddust Yorkies are different

  • Born with golden champagne coats — not the classic black-and-tan
  • Keep the soft golden color into adulthood (most Yorkies lighten only slightly)
  • Same silky, hypoallergenic single-coat texture
  • Full Yorkshire Terrier temperament
  • AKC-registerable like any Yorkie

Why they're uncommon

The Golddust coloring is a recessive trait — both parents need to carry it for a litter to produce gold puppies. Most American breeders don't pair for it. We source our Golddust lines from European imports with Champion pedigrees, which is why our Golddust Yorkies (like Tiffany and Theo on our program) are some of the most sought-after dogs in our program.
