If Yorkie's are like Maltese it may be a little hard to tell when they have their puppy coat. When the adult coat comes in it could be entirely different from the puppy coat. Silky means the hair lays smooth and silky hangs pretty, soft to the touch. Cottony coats seem to be more unmanageable, tangle more easily, doesn't feel smooth, and the doggie always looks like he/she is having a bad hair day. Raw silk actually feels like a cotton ball so I can see where it is hard to distinguish. |
