Hi Everyone! Im new here and a new yorkie owner! I've had my little yorkie for about 2 weeks now. Her name is Stella, and she is 10 weeks old and absolutely precious!! However, I do have a question if any of you may be able to answer it. I know yorkies are not supposed to shed, we had 2 when I was growing up many years ago, and I dont ever remember them shedding, however Stella is shedding little black fuzz everywhere, like if I pick her up, it gets all over my clothes, Im finding it here and there in the kitchen and in her bed. This is really upsetting me because I particularly like the idea that they dont shed and took that into consideration before purchasing her. Do they shed their puppy coat or something?? She is full blooded and ckc registered so I know its not that shes mixed with another breed. I would so greatly appreciate any advice any of you can share with me, as Im at my wits end with all the fuzzies!! Thanks so very much!!
