| Maybe your yorkie is a red legged yorkie, the hair in red legged grows slower, but it usually pretty hair when it grows in. |

| Josie is 2 now and her isnt really full and my groomer basically told me about a year ago she want have real full or long hair to look at her feet. fie "Red legged Yorkie"? Never heard of that term but wondering if that is what Josie is? I call her my little carrot top. LOL Josie is the one with more red, to the right. She is the one here with the smaller body. Trying to show how her hair isn't that full or long. Groomer only nips the length. (yes they are searching for any dropping of food) These were the only photos I have here at my work computer to show her length. |

YT 2000 Club Donating Member | And you could have a pure silk coat. They take for-ever to grow in. Well not really think 14-18 mths depending on how tall your dog is.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I thought the term "red legged yorkie" mean a dog whose coat stayed short, it was also wiry, but breeders used them to bring back the darkness of the saddle. I've heard that they no longer use them, there are other ways to bring back the darkness in the saddle. Silky coats do grow very slow and are beautiful when they do grow in, could you be thinking of that? Or am I confused?

2+2=4 X the Love ♥ Donating Member | Not sure what the problem might be. Both my Miah and Brandi are both pure silk coat Yorkies and I can remember wondering the same thing. WHen is their hair /skirt going to grow? Keep in mind that they do not grow at the same rate as every other Yorkie pup. What does she look like now and what did she look like say two months ago? For example; First photo Miah Second is Ruby and the Third is Tinker all at 4 months old. As you can see they all have different lenght hair.

| Oh she is beautiful. I think she will have a beautiful coat given time our little Kyra is close to the same age and her hair still is about the same length as your Anna's I don't think you should worry
