| The cotton coat So I just read up on different coat Styles of Yorkies. I am almost certain Precious has a cotton coat. Her mom and dad were both silver and tan. How many of you have cotton coat yorkies? Do you have pics of adults? I'm in love with the longer look especially around the face but I hear w/a cotton coat, grooming is much more difficult. Anyone have pics to share?

| OMGosh....Those are some cute pics of cotton coat puppies. I always thought my Muffin had a cotton coat, but now I think it's an extremely cottony coat. She looks like a teajug sometimes with all her fluff...and it's all FLUFF.

| How old is Precious? Wait till the puppy hair grows out before really taking a look at her coat. I have heard that puppy hair is pretty bad. Kaji does have a cottony coat. His beard like, those that posted, falls pretty straight. The hair on the top of his head is pretty straight too, his head hair does have a few kinks here and there. His hair is super thick all over, and oh so very soft. He feels softer than a brand new teddy bear. His body hair curls, not as much as Dex's hair (he's so cute by the way) but even with his current short cut you can see it definitely has waves. I'll be growing out his hair after this summer. We'll see how that goes. Kaji's puppy hair About 8 Months ago Current Pic

| She's 10 weeks old and there's more fluff than dog !! Super thick and super soft. I'm assuming she's not silky bcs she feels more like a stuffed animal than human hair

| I can't guarantee this, since Kaji came home with no puppy hair, puppy hair is suppose to be very different from adult hair. For now, it's a wait and see game. There is a flash test you could do, it's pretty accurate too. When you're taking a picture and the flash is in their eyes, if they're silky, their eyes will get a green flash dot. If they flash red, like devil dog eyes, then they're cotton coated.

| I have read somewhere about puppy eyes flashing blue. Just adding more to the confusion. Wait until she's a little older, but definitely check tomorrow. I'd be interested to find out what you find.
