a BUNCH of people talk about the different products we use...we all want our yorkies to look their best and your question did get off track - sorry.... |
Its okay with the off track. From the posted pictures, I think most probably my baby is not a red legged. However, I did not know that the word "red legged" can trigger off so many debates and is sensitive in the Yorkie breeding world. And no..I am not looking for any particular coat type. I love my baby and I just want to know what his coat type is. I guess in a few months time, I would know his coat type
I really can't wait
Thank you about the compliment on his coat
I think the main factor is his diet. He eats Innova Puppy Dry and is really thriving on it. Sometimes I mix in Merricks Grammy's Pot Pie but he doesn't like it and Nutro dry food as well. I also give him fruits-bananas, apples mainly, cheese, Nutro Puppy Drumstick treats; vegetables-bits of carrot, broccoli. Also, gentle brushing every day helps. I use Tearless Burgham Pro Plus shampoo for Senior Dogs (made in Canada)-usually senior dogs shampoo are much milder and doesn't irritate skin as much (this I learnt from experience although my previous dogs were not Yorkies) and tiny bit of human conditioner-the one I use..L'Oreal.I also feed him a teaspoon of pure honey every night (not those in the market mixed with sugar). I am thinking of Missing Link but the store near my house do not sell it and have not heard of it. He does have a good appetite and I think that helps a lot. He is picky with his dry food and usually likes Innova more when it is mixed with some lukewarm water but is not picky with fruits, veggies. Hopefully, he will continue to thrive on it. If not, I might switch him to homecooked food as I have a well balanced home cook recipe.
