Silver hair..... - YorkieTalk.com Forums

lisakurth · 04-28-2006, 06:49 AM

My little guy has a ton of silver hair on his head. He's 7 months. Will it change to another color? Thanks.

I don't think it will change. They usually change from black to gray or silver so that is probably what his color is going to be.

Duncan and Bo's hair went from silver to gold and tan on their heads

Jewels hair went from black to white to tan on her head

The hair on Pixie's head turned white around 6 months... It was so white it almost looked like she was bald!

She's about 9 months now and it's starting to get darker... I'm sure within a couple more months all the new growth with be tan.

You can see from my avatar twinkles changing hair - she is almost 6 months now and has a lovely silvery cream on her head, and a bluey grey where she was black, but no doubt she will look different this time in a couple of months!

Gizmo's head turned almost white and has stayed that color and he is 3 years old. His legs are very light tan and his back is white-silver-blue.

Jill is 13 weeks old and she has about 1/4" of silver growing out of the roots. So it won't be long and black hair around her face will be gone.

Miss Mini's went from black to silver to light blonde on her head and it looks now that its turning darker blonde ,he back has went from black to light silver to darker silver and the texture has changed also ..shes still changing I'm sure .

Both of mine turn blonde or even platinum/bleach blonde during the summer......and both have gone through an array of different colors in their short lifetime one only being 2 yrs. old and the other being one year old. I try not to predict what they will end up looking like? I gave up on that, but I did do extensive research on their pedigrees hoping that they would both turn out to be on the lighter side, not the darker Black/Tan. I do prefer Silver/Gold
coloring.

I know it will keep changing with the weather and age.

The silver on my pup's head turned to a beautiful tan also.
