We got McGee when she was 3 1/2 years old, a retired Canadian Champion. She WAS Canadian Champion Ryals Bobbie Sox. We had her PTS earlier this year at 15. She was blind, deaf and senile and we finally made the terribly difficult decision to send her to Rainbow Bridge.
McGee wore clothes, specially made for her because she was tall and thin like a Greyhound. Winter, she wore "zoot suits" with 4 legs, summer the ones like a jumper with 2 legs (a/c was cold for her). They definately need clothes to keep them warm.
If anyone is ever thinking of getting one (they are great dogs), they DO require a LOT of skin care. One would think a Yorkie would be harder to care for but believe it or not, they are a breeze compaired to a Chinese Crested. They have skin like ours and can have skin problems including blackheads that seem to pop up overnight. Not a "wash and wear".
If you need any specific info, PM me and I will try to help.
