I don't mean to scare you, but my first yorkie had a terrible dry coat all the time it was never shiney and healthy looking and she died at the age of 3. Something to do with her inability to process protein. That was many years ago and vet medicine has come a long way since then so maybe it can be corrected if it is actually that problem.

She had no other signs so I never had her to the vet until she started vomiting and getting thin.
OMG! I hope its nothing like that. Yes I did take chloe to the vet for scratching and they didnt do any extensive testing because they think its allergies which they said its common for it to be seasonal which this is how it is with chloe and they just had me give her benedryl. I'd say she gets like this 3 times a year. Her coat is awlays fine-haired, but I awlays figured that was genetic. Im pming you
