| I found this so I feel better.... A puppy of around four months, that has changed the color on its head from black to gray to a very pale sooty color, will as an adult enrich all the tan areas to a clear golden tan. The blue will follow the correct manner of transition from black to blue starting to do so around six months. The coat texture will be the correct silky type.

YT 2000 Club Member | here is a photo of my Jeter. Is this what you are talking about? The last picture was taken in January when you could first start to notice it. My husband teasingly calls him Stripe from the Gremlin's movie. http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/d...Jeter041-1.jpg http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/d...Jeter053-2.jpg http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/d...ry32008038.jpg

| It's hard to tel from the pics but my older yorkie has blond almost white hair on his head... And he is a silver grey... I lke his coloring... Sadie is 51/2 months old and her hair on her head looks like SOOT GREY... like she was rolling around in the fireplace!!! it isn't a nice white or blond look... it's this smoky soot color. When chewy starting breaking his color I was upset because I was looking for tan. But once I saw what a light yorkie looked like I liked it. I love her no matter what... I'm just hoping her coloring comes out nice cause soot grey from what I see is kind of weird looking.

| Ginger has been like that since she was around 3 1/2 mos. she's now 7 mos. and still like that, and most of her bakc is also gray..their hair will change until they're between 2-3 years old..it's very normal for your pup to look like that |

| Most yorkies are grey on their body. is the grey on her back or on her head? Sadies is on her head... her back is still black, no color break there yet. her hair seems to grow rather slowly.

| Diesel is similar, he looks like a balding old man because it looks like scalp under black hair!

| Your babies are cute! Are they silk coat? The eyes are so green!!! I am hoping Sadie will be a silk coat. Chewy is cotton...

| Yep.. they're silky! I love it and its soo easy to manage.. I was afraid she wasn't going to be because she's still so dark but I lucked out! I've never seen a yorkie with a cottony coat, so I have nothing to compare them to.. I'd love to see the differences though..
