My last yorkie, Chelsea, grew coat very quickly. I had to trim it to keep it off the floor.

ZoE is the opposite. While her coat is very silky and doesn't tangle much, it is extremely slow growing and breaks off fairly easily. After three years of trying to grow a full coat, and only ever getting to the messy middle length stage, I gave up and shaved her! It happens to suit her well as she's a well-toned pup and it shows off her fit bod. She also looks better in clothes as she no longer has stringy hair hanging down under a cute outfit. But I still look longingly at a shiny floor length coat.

Zoe is such a pretty girl.
