A redleg is basically a throw back from the early yorkies. If you find a pic of Huddenfeild's Ben ( a famous early yorkie) you will see that my Roxie looks like him. Her coat and skin are very deeply pigmented with a strong red tint to the gold. The coat is also a bit hard and breaks easily. Breeders use them about every 4 - 5 generations to bring color back into their lines. One of my gals out of this litter looks like she may be a redleg.
