I am visiting my MIL in FL and she has a hairless yorkie, named Divot. She adopted him a while ago. He only has a bit of hair on his chin, underneath his tail, and a few wisps on his legs. Other than that, he has no hair.

He is like a little cat always coming up and rubbing against you. He will also sit there for hours on end letting your pet and scratch him. His skin is very dry. He always wears shirts to help shield him from the sun. My MIL uses Suave Vitamin E lotion on him. She puts it on and he soaks it up like nothing ever happened. She also uses Hydrosurge Advanced Skin Care shampoo on him.

Does anyone here have experience with a hairless yorkie? What is the best way to help this little guy's terribly dry skin? In some areas it is flaky. He is a cute little bugger, but boy, he sure is itchy. Thanks for any ideas!
