Unfortunately, Walter's eyes don't have any color flash in your photo. Do you have other photos where you can see the eye flash color?

In Bella's case, we knew for certain after her first grooming at 4 months of age that she would be a silky coat. Here is a thread about her first grooming, with before and after photos at the bottom of the first page of posts: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...-grooming.html . The grooming removed the remainder of the puppy coat and exposed the silky adult coat. Silky coats can still mat, but not nearly as much.

I do! here's the flash on his eyes from a video with flash yesterday: http://i.imgur.com/bth451B.png
