Fair enough. I think, though, what I would say regarding this is that there is no sure way to know how any puppy will develop. If you had your heart set on an exact look, I think you'd have been better off buying an adult where the color had already set, the size, etc.


With puppies, you just can never tell how they will develop.


Believe me, I do understand what you're saying. Teddy has a cotton coat, which I was very disappointed to learn, but had I done my research (instead of just assuming all Yorkies are the same cuz my other two were by luck - not design) then I would have known and my expectations would have been different.


The puppy has bonded with you at this stage, I have no doubt, so it is hard for some people to grasp that you would want to get rid of it based on its coat. But, if you are going to hold that against the dog, then I would probably say that putting him with someone who would truly love him for himself and not his fur would be the best thing.


Then, I would suggest buying a 2-3 year old Yorkie and waiting for as long as necessary until you find the right one. Although, a dog can be beautiful and have behavioral problems or not be perfect in some other way. These are the risks we take when we invite a life into our home.


Good luck.
