| NEW to the board! Hello everyone, Ive been registered here for a little while, but now is when I have actually have some time to really read through some posts. I have a 10 month old female yorkie named MiMi. She is my very first yorkie and she has the best personality I could ask for! I just had a few questions for the more experienced Yorkie owners/breeders out there. First question is, what are normal changes and growing stages of the their coat? What does a cottony coat look like vs a silk coat?? Second is, when do they reach their full physical weight and size? Just trying to educate myself the most I can. I love dogs and would love to show someday. Her sire is CH, so I am hoping I have some hope in her being show quality...i know its a lot to ask for, but you never know! About me, I am in California, just seperated from the Air Force and due with a baby boy in Dec! I am married, no kids yet until Dec comes around! Looking forward to being a part of this board and maybe meeting some new friends! Marie |

| Welcome to Yorkie Talk I can't answer any of your questions but welcome to Yorkie Talk. My sister was in the air force for 25 years. Congratulations on your new furbaby and your little baby that is on the way. I have a 4 1/2 year old Yorkie and I just got another little girl who is 13 weeks old. They are the greatest little dogs. j

| Oh she is just gorgious. Welcome to YT. I believe at about a year they are about the size that they are going to be for the rest of there life granted you do not over feed them and all that normal stuff. I may be wrong, but I found this to be true with my yorkie. She looks like she has a silky coat to me. Does she usually get tons of matts in her hair? There is a post on her about yorkie eye color being able to let you know what kind of coat your yorkie has. You might want to look in to that. Good luck and welcome to YT.

| I really appreciate the warm welcome everyone! Thanks for the info Sharon, just trying to get an idea of how she will turn out. She does get matts, and Ive had to trim her hair to get them out and make her coat more manageable, but I am not sure if its because she likes to scratch her back on things or if its because of possible cottony coat. I will post a picture of her whole body in second. Shes got an itcy spot on her back, which I think I am going to switch her diet up to see if that will help. I am thinking of going raw, I give her raw occasionally but so far havent gone full board with a raw diet. |
