| Shedding I have a question about shedding, my lil baby girl Bella has been shedding in chunks. It really only comes out when we brush her but it is not just a couple of hairs its like lil clusters of hair. I don't think this is normal but has this happend to anyone else?

| How old is she? I've noticed Darla (5 mos) ends up with a lot more hair in the brush than my older yorkies ever have. I think she's losing her "baby hair." |

| She is about 5mos. I was not to worried about it but it is like chunks of hair. My parents have a yorkie and my boyfriends parents have two yorkies and none of them ever did this!! It is so weird.

| My little guy has very fine hair, im talking fine fine and easily breaks when I brush him. Sometimes Id get chunks of hair and I realized that it was a little mat, very small so I didnt feel it when I brushed it out of him, but sure enough that was why a 'clump' came out. Do you see mats in the brush? You could just be brushing them out and not realizing it. |
