I have had at least one blue born in each litter, which consists of the past 3 litters. They have all been wonderful. I have sold them much cheaper then the black/tans, because I make sure to tell the new owners, a few things like, they are not CKC/AKC/UKC quality, they cannot breed, and they may loose and regrow their hair over their life. The ears are the first to go turning into a leathery skin, and the nose and center of eyes is the next. That is where the hair loss in my experience is. The feet, underskirt and chest never has lost hair. It does grow back. Whomever had the pup pictures of the new born is exactly what they look like upon birth. I have had all but one of my new parents keep in contact with me from time to time, and have never had a problem. The only thing I had happen to me, was a vet contacted me that belonged to a new owner and stated my pup may have mange, I countered with my vet and documentation I had had over some time, and the vet revoked his initial diagnosis, as this is no kind of mange. So, they are different, but they are beautiful and they as all yorkies have wonderful dispositions, patients and love. Take care of your blue babies as they are too special to be thought of as WRONG! Some history for you: I have some that are as old as 3 and 7 years old and they shows no sign of concern and they are fully haired, ears, and noses. This may not be all blue yorkies experience, but this is my luck as of now 10-5-06
