I still have a lot to learn about their gait and all the other things that go with showing.
I am so glad I found this site I have learned so much just by reading the diff threads.
I have added Lacey Bugs pictures here can you please give me an honest opionion? I think her head is light. But do you think as she gets older she will get darker? I have noticed over the last couple of months the color has been changing to a golder color.
The first picture is when she was 8 months old the other is 2 yrs.
Thank you Sue |
Sue....I think she is beautiful too. She looks like she will have shaded gold too. The gold on her ears looks to be a darker gold which is a good sign. My Yogi had a lot of gray in his head at 8 months and he is over two now and his gold is getting richer looking. I think your girl has nice steel blue also. What are the bloodlines of your dogs? I am no expert on all this and I am trying to learn too. I think I have a good eye for conformation. The one thing about yorkies is that it takes so long for the coats to break and different lines develop at different rates. Those breeders that have bred and shown for many years and are familiar with the different lines can usually tell at an early age what kind of coat the dogs will have. I don't think show breeders are mean intentionally but they are honest and I appreciate their honesty. Sometimes the truth hurts. I know I have made my share of mistakes because I did not have a mentor and I was given wrong information in the beginning about coats, etc.
