Does there fur color change?

[Kara315]

I was debating a little with my mom the other day about this. our two yorkies are only 4 months so they still have most of there black but we can see the other colors coming in, and she thought they color would stay black. Does the color stay black? i didn't think it did i thought it always changed unless it was just me lol. were thinking one will be gray/bluish and the other a light brown. sorry dont know the actual names for the colors lol.

There is a great thread pinned to the top of this section that discusses the coat changes as your Yorkie ages.

Yes there coat will most likely change but there are some that do stay darker. I think the best part of yorkies is that they are the only dogs to change to so many different colors before their permanent color comes in. Also some start changing colors at an early age while others are much later to change colors.
The head will change to a gold or a tan color unless it stays dark. The body color will change to what they call blue but some will look like a light grey/silver color while others will have the dark blue color and yet some will stay black.
I have one of each. Scampers is black and gold, Destiny is tan and a light blue and Brownie is gold and a dark blue.

Hope this helps some.

I've read that by age two, what you see is pretty much what you got.

Haha, i had someone ask me a question like this the other day i was like welllll i have nooo clue
... i work at a daycare and one of my parents got a yorkie not too long ago so she asked me how long Belle was changing for and why her pup got all blonde (he was sick and i believe he was shaved, but it grew in all blonde/ white i think) she wanted to know if he was gonna get back to original colors... i was like hmmm... i'm still waiting to see what Belle is gonna come out as...lol right now she has black on her ends, the middle is black and silver ish and her roots are black?!-- her belly is white, and her face is gold but the top of her head where her top knot goes is blonde... she's a year and 4 months...
