I show yorkies and i always put coconut in their hair. It keeps it from getting tangled and it doesnt dry the skin out like some oils can. I just make sure on the day of a show to make sure and get all the oil out so it doesnt look greasy. So yes your yorkie will look greasy but if your trying to grow a showcoat or just grow out the puppy coat i would highly recommend using coconut oil. They also do love the taste. SO i always let them have some when i apply it. Amazingly they dont try to lick it off each other so that is good. I also heard somewhere that it is also a natural tick repellant i dont know though for sure. |
