Dinky is black and turning brownish more and more, and he has splash of white on his chest.

I'm just curious. My feelings won't be hurt. I love him just the way he is.
and also...He has been neutered. No Dinky DNA on the loose!  |
I saw from another post your dog must have been born FEB 2010, making him a little less than a year old. How large a patch of white is left on his chest? Has it been getting smaller as he ages?
You say he is getting browner? What part? Is it the black that is getting brown, or are you saying the lighter color on him is looking brown? Another poster asked about pedigree and that would be quite helpful. Was he sold as a parti?
Some standard yorkies are born with a small white splash on their chest. It normally will all turn into the standard color as the dog matures, usually by a year old. So, it may be that your dog will have no white on it as a mature adult.
I am not at all sure what to comment on the brownish you refer to as I don't know where on your dog it is. I only saw the small avatar picture. Do you have a better picture of your dog so that you can show what you mean about the different colors?
