| Yorkie Coat Colors & Changes Hello everyone. As the mommie of a new baby, I've been doing a lot of reading & research. I've especially been interested in how Yorkie coats change colors as the babies grow up and mature. I was just wondering if anyone actually had like a picture timeline of the fur changes for thier baby as I am making one for CoCo now. I think I'm going to make a Fotki album just for her, so I can track her growth & fur. If anyone has an albums or a few pics to post as sort of like a timeline, I would love to see it. Thanks!!! |

| I do not have an album but let me warn you You need to have great patience as the coat turns. At least I am finding that I need it. Gizmo just turned a year and is just starting to turn. I figure it is because we adopted him from a shelter and he probably wasn't taken care of properly. When I got him his hair was black and wiry. Now that is growing out his hair underneath is much softer and much lighter. It is so odd to hold up the hair and near the skin it is soft but on the tips it is black and wiry. I can't wait!!!!!

| Thanks Carlea. Yeah, I am excited about seeing how she will grow up. It's nothing like my chihuahua. The only thing that changed with her is that when I got her, her ears were floppy, and now her ears stand up. LOL This is almost like watching a real baby. From what I understand it could take 1 1/2 years or longer to see the true coat colors. With CoCo, I can see the hair on her head getting lighter near the scalp. It looks funny because it almost looks like she's going bald. Her brother's hair is growing much faster and turning much quicker than hers. I just love to see the differences and can't wait to start her photo journal. Thanks for sharing. |
