I just wondered if anyone elses yorkies look like they still need brushing after they were just brushed and of coursed rolled on the rugs a bit. I think I'll try it and I'll post some different pictures of her after I use it. Still wondering if she has silk coat or what. her hair looks a bit dry on the tips to me. what do yall think? |
What a beautiful girl she is!!!
It's kinda hard to tell from the pictures plus I am no expert. I do believe in the eye color depicting coat. Also, I have noticed that true silks tend to not look like "teddy bears". They usually have thinner coats..........but that is just my observation and of course am probably wrong.
Some true silks look like 'ugly ducklins' compared to the soft-coated ones. Bobbi was not a cute puppy (to me he was) many questioned if he was a mix. Everytime I posted pics, I got many views but hardly any replies......it hurt my feelings a little...........lol (but then again, the girls are super popular on here and the boys tend not to be).
There is another member who has 2 gorgeous true silk boys that grew up to be absolutely stunning. They look nothing like they did as puppies........I love watching all the changes. My boy is almost 9 months and his adult coat is coming in much different than it was. It is still very thin. His eyes reflect green all the time.
I subscribe to a yorkie magazine and reading the articles from show breeders/exhibitors are very interesting. I just read one where it talks about 'ugly ducklins' turning into swans as adults
Anyhow, all this to say............I DON'T KNOW WHAT TYPE OF COAT SHE IS
She is
gorgeous and who the heck cares..........
Please tell us how the minsheen works for you
