I have a question about my Bear's ancestory. Upon receiving his AKC registration papers, I looked at his pedigree. Unlike my previous Yorkie, Pasha, this pedigree only goes back three genertations. I noticed that Bear's "parents" are Toby and Minnie P. Toby's grandparents are Minnie P's great grandparents.
I'm no expert on dogs but this looks like in breeding to me. Could that be why Bear has a wavy, short, thin coat instead of having full hair? I emailed the AKC and they referred me to my vet.
My vet has Bear on vitamin E capsules for his coat.
Anyone out there familiar with this or have a similar story?
