Now that Gus has lost his puppy coat and his hair is growing longer it appears to be very thin. You can see his skin on his back. I am not sure if he should see a vet or not.

Also, his coat is wiry and kind of short his back, but very long and silky on his head, legs, chest and belly. I have poured over info on the yorkie coat but can't seem to find anything on his combination. I am wondering if anyone has experienced this before?

TIA
