| Silver Gold question I know alot of questions about coloring but I am still a bit confused with colors growing in. Now from what I have been reading on here it seems a silver/white growing in is nomal and may further change back to the tan or gold. What my question is, is what about if the head hair goes directly to gold and the back stays blue/black. My Ruby is growing in the gold on head and staying dark on body.

| Hi! Their coat changes so much. You really can't have a true color before they turn two. Princess has changed so many times, she's almost three so I guess her coat is here to stay.

Donating YT 14K Club Member | First of off, how old is Ruby? There's a chance she'll turn the gold/tan on the head but stay black in the body. It's a beautiful combination aside from being out of breed standard.

She is 4 months. Now I'm even more confused because I thought black /blue and Gold/tan were the standards an not the white/silver??? So what IS the breed standard??? Sorry for being so stupid and not getting it

I've got 2 yorkies that stayed shiny deep black in coat on body and tan on head/face. My others went through many stages of silvery/white, gold/silver, and they turned blue/tan/gold all but one who stayed silvery on her body. It really is hard to tell what they will really be before 2 yrs old. | |
