Yorkie hair has a long growth cycle which is what allows it to grow so long, compared to a lab or pug with a short growth cycle. that is why they shed when you just look at them. Yorkies do shed but they shed more like people do and you only really see a few hairs in the brush when your grooming them.

Ohhh..Well now I feel stupid..lol..I am CLUELESS when it comes to grooming and coats and that sort of thing. So don't you think it would be good to get rid of the "dead ends" so to speak? Or should I leave well enough alone?
