| Maybe she is just an "early bloomer" as that is the color they are supposed to "break" to. My girl is about a year and a half and she is starting to look dusty. They are all so different. |

| Wow i didnt think they could bloom that early! Kind of regret on shaving coco.. Should have paid double for the scissors cut! I mean dont get me wrong coco is adorable but i feel like she went from baby coco to lady coco. She looks uber grown up now hehe i hope that she will have that puppy look when her haor grows a bit

| I know, they are such adorable puppies that it is hard to see them, well get older. I don't really think they "mature" all that much, ya know kind of like men(haha). |

| My daughter and I sort of hate that our baby's looks are maturing. She is really starting to look like, well, a Yorkie, ha ha. Yet we miss that adorable puppy face. My daughter totally doesn't want her to change colors yet she is starting to already. |

| Bitsy did the same thing when I had her shaved. I was really shocked when I went to pick her up But I still love her no matter what she looks like

| I had my Connor trimmed the first time at the groomers because his puppy hair would mat so badly. He was funny looking (his daddy is a blk, wht, and tan parti) with his puppy coat, so about 2 weeks later we just had him shaved. We dropped off a scruffy, dark puppy and about 2 hours later--we had a little silver bullit! He was gorgeous! His hair was so soft and has not been matted since! |

| Douglas had been previously groomed before he was picked up by the shelter, kinda like a schnauzer cut with hair on his shoulders, we have had him almost 7 weeks and he has gotten SO hairy, I am taking him tomorrow to get a cut, a new experience for me! I had called our Petco a while back checking on prices/asking questions and the lady said 'we don't do puppy cuts, only face, because if you cut the puppy hair, it does not grow back right as a adult?' I have since heard that Petco normally does do puppy cuts (asked on their Facebook page) Douglas has started to get lots more grey hairs on his back as his hair has gotten longer, looking forward to what he will look like tomorrow!

| Mina is 6months old. I took before pictures of her back yesterday (she was black) because I knew when I groomed her today that she would be a drk silver. She looks like a little girl instead of a baby. |

| Norman was 4.5 months old when he had his first groom - same thing, he went in black and tan and came out silver and tan. They look like a whole different dog don't they? |

| I don't remember how old Hot Rod was, but I think he was about 5 - 5 1/2 mos at his first groom and he had black tips. I hadn't realized they would be gone. I was so sad to see it gone when I picked him up. then at his 2nd groom, he looked as though he were 2 different dogs. His head was completely white and his body was completely back except his paws. hahaha
