White Yorkie?

I saw a white yorkie this morning. Someone was carrying it through the underground mall system in Toronto.

I've never seen that before. Was it an albino maybe?

I saw what looked like a white yorkie about a year ago. When I asked what it was, I was told that it was a cross between a yorkie and a bichon (I believe that they said it was about 4 mos old at the time ... lord knows what it looks like now). Had the yorkie 'look' but the white of the bichon (I suspect that the final colour had yet to appear).

Just ran a google search on this mix to see if it has a stupid name like the rest of these designer mutts .... it does. Apparently they are called a Yo-Chon.

The ones I've met are small, but still quite a bit bigger and much longer than a yorkie...
