B/c I am still trying to figure out all this stuff myself .... some reading material for anyone interested in how a yorkie's coat texture and coloring corresponds to what is and is not called for by the AKC standard is below. It's thick though, so go ahead and let your yorkie curl up in your lap to nap if you intend to read.
I think Luca Dean has the skin coloring Joan Gordon describes, but still not sure. I read somewhere too yorkies which end up with the "proper" coat are kind of straggly looking as pups. Dean's got that going for him too. He's black and tan.
Silky or kinky, wooly or cottony, Dean's beautiful to me, even with his awful cut!
