Cajungal -- My pup never "lost his puppy coat" and he "never shed."
I know that my pup lost his puppy hair because I trimmed/cut it off - not because it came out on its own.
My pup's first coat (the one that one that he was born with) was "terrible," It was oily, thin, matted, almost impossible to comb, etc. This is why I got rid of this hair as soon as possible. This hair was totally gone before he was four months old, and he has since sported a new silver/tan coat that is thicker, not oily, and never has a tangle or matt.
**** I will never know why my pup's hair was so bad to start with. It was almost like he had been dipped in oil....(I really do wonder if something wasn't put on his coat - even though it wouldn't wash out)......but, anyway, now, he has a coat of hair that I am sure many of you would love your dogs to have.
Let's see what others have to say about your puppy shedding.....
***** This is your second Yorkie - do you remember your other Yorkie losing its puppy hair or shedding?????
