 yorkie hair/coats
Samson's hair is the silky...tangles easily. He's 5 months old and it's thin and lies flat when I comb him.
He got groomed for the first time today and she said he did great. She cut all the black out...left him with the silvery light coat that was growing in. So cute!! His face and legs are lighter blonde with some of the brown mixed in. But now his body is silvery.
My groomer knows yorkies well, and said Sammy might change colors again a couple of times before he gets his final colors. My husband calls him a camelion (sp?).
I also learned that the thin coat will thicken up 2 to 3 times the thickness it is starting out with. But the silky trait will be there... it will tend to tangle easily. I've gotten him used to brushing and combing and he is tolerating it much better, but I have to keep it up daily or he begins to fight it because the tangles begin to show up some. Especially under his pits and down his legs. Poor thing. |
