As with any breed, there are incorrect breedings but just as a correct yorkie has a silk (cool to the touch) coat......the same goes for silkies.
I currently own a fair quality yorkie, a yorkie that is way out standard and three very nice show quality silkies including one that a have out at AKC shows as a special (championed at the age of one). |
Did not mean to offend anyone about silky's not feeling silky. We love our daughters little guy and he comes from a very reputable breeder ( unlike our little yorkie guy) But his coat does not feel silky like out yorkies or other yorkies I know of and neither do those of the other silky's who belong to our friends. Don't get me wrong he Is a very beautiful baby and maybe he will get silkier to the touch as he ages ( one year old now) To me he has a courser feel to the touch. Maybe its just me because I am a retired hairdresser and probably am judging by human hair textures.
And I did correct myself on the facial hair color. My daughter told me today that her little guys fur is starting to break gold on the head now
