Yorkie Talker | new puppy Hoping I can get some advice. Bought a 7 month old show prospect puppy and find I am a little disappointed. At 7 months of age my other yorkie had a gorgeous thick silky coat. Harley, my new yorkie has silky hair on the face, so soft =) but on the body thinner and somewhat coarse =( Am going to a dog show Saturday to have him evaluated by some handlers. Has anyone ever had a puppy with a coat like this ? How did it turn out ? Ideally, would love the hair to end up thick, silky and floor length. |

Donating YT 10K Club Member | Key words...show prospect. May or may not be a show dog. What you describe is a puppy coat. He is simply too young to determine. And you don't want thick hair.

| Don't call the hair "soft," always say silky. I made that mistake at a show and got the evil eye. Soft is for cottony coats.
