I usually use Minksheen, but occasionally use Biogroom on him. I love Minksheen! I just took pics this weekend. I'll try to post some in a few minutes. He's the baby you see a couple of times in my avitar, but those are months old.

Ok, I was having trouble putting these pics in my album. So, I'm putting a few pics of Tate here. This is the first nice weather we had had in ages, and the gang just wanted to be outside playing - so there has been NO grooming done for these pics. And, he was due for a two week bath but I didn't want to spoil all the fun. His coat actually looks a lot like your picture of Bailey's.

In the 3rd shot, Tate is the one on top (Murphy said he was just letting him win).

In the 4th shot, Tate in front & Murphy's in the back.

I agree, Bailey is adorable, and I see nothing wrong with her coat!!! Of course, we love them no matter what!!! Sophie always rolls around right after her bath, I think just to show me!!! LOL!

Tate is adorable, his coat looks nice and thick on the pics!!! What a handsome guy

Bailey is adorable! His hair is like Hot Rod's. I swear he was not a yorkie as his took forever to grow in and it was soooo stringy. It would look like what you think a greasy head of hair looked like stuck together. lol I used to have the groomer trim it straight across so it would at least look like he was brushed.

Now his hair is thicker but still slow growing.

Bailey looks like such a cutie!

Lioncross4 · 10-22-2009, 12:45 PM

I would trim up the ends---the coat is always the messest when it is transitioning between puppy and big fur baby coat! I trmmed mine and it really helped the transitin!

CaraJo · 10-22-2009, 12:46 PM

Ah! Lillies gets like that too, except most of hers is on her head. Its more adamant now because she has a head of 'white hair' with the tips of it that are still black from her baby hair. She looks like a GREASEBALL! We call her "Lillie the Greaser"

I give her a bath once a week and after about a day she's back to the old greasy hair look. As long as she doesn't stink, Im ok with the grease. Your little guy melted my heart when I saw him, such a cuttte face!

Darlene, your little Bailey is exquisite! He is going for that debonaire tossled look that drives the women crazy -- Yorkie women in love crazy, Mommy women just crazy.

deeogie · 10-22-2009, 12:56 PM

He is so gorgeous the way he is! Lucky does the same thing!! His hair grows slowly as well....and I have gotten comments like "he looks like a nest!" But as long as he is happy...I am happy!!

Darlene68 · 10-22-2009, 01:13 PM

Thanks for the encouraging posts everyone, you are all so wonderful

Arzel36 · 10-22-2009, 05:16 PM

Bailey is adorable!

AprilLove · 10-22-2009, 05:53 PM

Bailey is sooo cute!!! He has such beautiful eyes!!! The scraggly puppy hair happens to all of them. The hard part when you are wanting to grow it out long, is getting through all the puppy mess, lol. Puppy cut or puppy mussy, either way they look adorable

I looked at Tate closely after this thread. He does have nice think hair, but it isn't very long. Not even halfway to his knees yet. It's growing sooooo sloooooowww. I guess I'm just used to Murphy - his hair grows so fast I can't keep up with it. I want Tate's to hurry up and grow out more.
