| hair club ofr yorkies? My boyfriend got my little yorkie boy(CsiCsu) for B-day last month. Yorkies are expensive in NYC, so we searched on line and found breeder in TX and supposely he's well known and trust worthy. Since we are in NYC, we purchased CsiCsu on breeder's website("yorkiepup.com"). CsiCsu looked so cute on website and in the pictures we requested the breeder. Breeder told us that he's very health and he has no problems what so ever. However when we got CsiCsu, we thought he was ugly little rat!!! He had really odd hair(some very short some very long)and he never had hair cut. For 5month old yorkie, he had really thin hair. It's been about a month and his hair's still very very very short My vet told me that some small yorkies have issues with their hair and I should just wait and see. I've giving my other yorkies "dream coat" oil and it's working great, but I'm not sure if it's working for CsiCsu. Thin hair is problem not only for looks, but also for health(he's always cold) CsiCus is 6month old 5" tall 6" long 1.8lb does anyone have yorkie with thin or weird hair? I would really appreciate your story or advise... I can not attached pics because it too big... I put some pics of him from yesterday on my album

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Isn't this breeder Jeff Dane? I hope this puppy gets a very thorough vet check, as this breeder has a long history of very sick pups. If you search "Jeff Dane" on this site, you will see. As for the fur/hair, it's hard to say...puppy coats can change in terms of color, as is expected, but thinner coats will usually stay a bit on the thin side. But there is always a chance that your pup's coat will thicken a bit.

| OH MY GOD!!!! I'm really sorry that I didn't know about Jeff!!! I heard about him from people I meet every morning in central park and they told me that they got their puppies from him and he's a good breeder! I should have known better! I took CsiCsu to the vet the day I got him and he was checked fine. Wow... I should have asked you before I got him!! Jeff sounded kinda mean over the phone, but I never imagine he would sell sick puppies!!! and PUPPY MILL!!!! I feel so guilty now.... I appologize to all animal lovers out there.... If you can, please check his pics on my photo album and let me know what you think of it... Thank you so much everyone

| There is nothing to appologize for! My first breeder I bought from wasnt a good one either. Just be glad your pup is happy and healthy because others havent been so fortunate and some of those have posted their experiences on here. If you do a search on here about Jeff Dane it will pull up alot of threads

| Don't feel bad everyone can make mistake. You know better now... Keep your dog on top food. Bio Groom fluffy puppy might give a little fuller look to the coat... |

| Jeff fed CsiCsu eukanuba, but I changed it to wellness super 5 and he loves it and I give him organic treats. Should I do blood check to get detailed info on his health?

The problem is that most "genetic time bombs" poorly bred dogs carry don't have markers that show up in blood tests. My Lady is a poorly bred rescue and had both epilepsy and diabetes. Neither one can be screened for. She was perfectly healthy for the first 4 years of her life until her genetics caught up with her. | |
