Some exhibitors use other colors. The rule of thumb is to use a color that enhances the gold and brings out their features. Some yorkies have a bit of red in their gold and orange looks better. I've used black on some of my boys, when their gold is a bit lighter (just have to be careful that it doesn't bring out the thumb prints or that black stripe in the center because it does call attention to it).....I've also used red, white and blue bows....for the 4th of July.....
There are shades of red that have too much blue in them and do nothing for dogs....so, one has to make sure they are putting the right color red on their dogs.....
I know there was a handler, now deseased who only used green on the yorkies he showed..... |
I know... Barbara/Marlene started a fade, didn't she. It lasted quite awhile. I know I have used a red with white poka-dots before! So cute!
And Top Banana looked great in his orange bow!
Who was the handler with green bows?? I can't think of who that is?
