She has shorter, very soft hair, but grows very slow. Even her nails grow slow, have only trimmed them once. She is also 4 1/2 months old and weighs 29 oz and has held that weight for the past month.
While her brothers, on the other hand, have a much thicker, coat and is still really soft but totally different texture than she has; and while she will be way under the standard weight, they s/b within or close. I think her coat even looks a little shorter than his. Does this help with comparison as far as "if it looks like a real yorkie?"
I think he's adorable, and I was wondering how he's doing? Getting along with the family? And if he's a little keeper? Maybe? He is pretty adorable. |
Wow. They look just alike! I can't get over the resemblance. So he must be pure bred. Hmm...I'm assuming that you breed your dogs to the standard... so he isn't like this because he wasn't bred to the standard. Do you have any predictions on how their hair will grow? I would love for him to look like a traditional yorkie, ya know? The hair on his face is pretty thin but his body does have some hair that has length to it.
We still have him in our home. He is a cutie. We are just trying to make the best decision for our family. We will make our decision by the end of the week.
