Hi Phoebe's Mom..
First off, Welcome to the board,
2nd.. Congratulations on your Furbaby she is Sweet and Adorable.
The picture is rather small and she's wearing a t shirt , so I'm not getting a very clear picture of her coat.
Perhaps she is a Red Leg Yorkie,
I have heard this term used many times over the past few years. A red leg yorkie generally has a shorter coarser coat that just dosn't grow very long at all.Perhaps some of the longtime breeders can chime in here. I have heard that some breeders who aquire one of these little red legs in a litter , will hold them back and introduce them into the breeding program to help throw a deeper shade of Gold into their breeding program. I'll pick a few friends brains to try and refresh what information I have heard regarding this Type of Coat.
Best Wishes
