Every dog will shed some hair -- but some shed very little -- more like humans. Yorkies should shed very little -- no more than you do. If you are being covered in hair when brushing, something is amiss. Are they tangled badly, is the hair breaking off? Are you making sure not to comb or brush them dry -- misting with a little conditioner mixed with mostly water or a product made just for this purpose. Is it possible one or both have a problem like hypothyroidism that can increase hair loss? Are they purebred Yorkies? Registered?
