Yorkies with silky coats often go through a period from about 14 weeks to 6 months where the hair is thin. Joey had the additional problem of having pure white roots with black hair, making him look balding. There's really nothing you can do, I found keeping it short helped, since you couldn't see as much black, but gradually it got much thicker. His hair went from white to beige and now it turning a little darker gold. It does seem that cotton coated yorkies have thicker hair when they are puppies, but their coats are much more difficult to upkeep. He's a little duck, waiting to turn into a swan.
