the only thing i can really say is that they all come different. you just gotta love them as they come.

It's related to breeding, lineage, age, & grooming.

If every Yorkie looked the same, it would be boring

Pardon my French, but "viva la difference". Some like one look, & some another look.

I agree. Also, since Yorkies are so popular, they are unfortunately a favorite among backyard breeders and puppy mills who pay no attention to the Yorkie standard.

Most of us have "pet quality" Yorkies rather than show dogs, and there are differences in them.

Coby is still so young, he will go thru many more changes before you see how he is really going to end up. Just love him for the sweet little guy that he is and try not to get too hung up on expectations of his looks. After about a year he will have his full growth and adult coat, and you can better accentuate certain characteristics with different grooming styles.

If you want his face to look more round you can aways take him to the groomers ask for a teddy bear cut.

BRINKS N ANGELA · 11-16-2009, 06:39 PM

oh and some detanglers will make his hair poofy.

I suspect there are millions of yorkies asking, "If they are all called people, why do they look so different?" "I wanted a people w/silky hair (or fluffy poofy hair around the face." "I wanted a teacup (or teapot)"

I wonder if they ever wonder? Sorry... I'm brain dead tired.

I'll go to bed now.
