Schatzie too who is 6 months looks scraggly shortly after brushing. It drives me NUTS!! I bath her about every 3-4 days as this seems to help but I also will hang out to see if anybody has some advise.
Im not sure if once the puppy hair is lost a better coat comes along or if what she has now is what she will have forever. Gosh, I hope not. For years I have been getting Yorkie books and see all these dogs with such gorgeous coats. Then I look down at Schatzie who looks like she has been rung through a ringer. Oh I love her to pieces but sure hope there is a magical formula for a nice smooth coat that doesnt look greasy or stringy...
She goes from a cottony fluff ball, to a part down her back the 2nd day which looks real nice to the third day of yuch!! |
