He looked like a ragamuffin for a while, especially as the hair on top turned from black to silver to tan. But now, he has a nice, silky full coat. If the hair always looks full and thick on top of the head as a puppy, it is more likely that they will have a cotton or combination coat.

It is absolutely normal for it to look thin, sparse, and a little stringy on top of the head at this stage and for at least another month or two.
Thank you so much! I feel better now, I know both his parents have silky coats, I was just a little worried and I do call him my little ragamuffin lately! His roots are getting lighter too, so the hair looks even finer on top I am so glad to know it is normal, I worry about every little thing with Bailey!
