If the only common denominator is the fleece...could've been treated with something, a different type dye used, different fabric blend.
I keep trying to think of something that would cause the exact same reaction in two different animals. Have any vines in the yard? Poison ivy...poison oak? Even if you think you do not...it's a possiblity if they were outside somewhere together. I don't see it in my yard either, but sometimes doing yardwork...my husband manages to find the one vine.
I don't think both would have the identical reaction to the oak tree string things. We have those....I hate them.
We used to advise benadryl and oatmeal baths as a treatment when it was impossible to determine the cause. The oatmeal bath is exactly what it sounds like....warm water with uncooked oatmeal in it. I don't know how effective it would be for a yorkie...and can't imagine the "fun" it would be to comb out her hair.
I really think hers are just taking longer to go away completely.
