Oh, that makes me so sad that his skin is damaged.

Poor little guy.

Thank you to everyone for the warm welcome back, and thanks for the heads up on Temple Grandin. I will definitely be checking that out.

I have no idea, but Manolo's fur kind of changed colors on me too. And she started growing black hairs around her face and head area, they are really slight though. I was kind of happy about it because I had cut her black hairs on her head trying to make a mohawk when she was a puppy, NOT realizing that their coats change color. Well now that we're in Hawaii, we're in much warmer climate and her light tan color which is like blonde started to get darker, like a deep gold.

Who knows?

lol

How old is Thor now? Uni's color is finally darkening, and she'll be 3 next month. She was always very light. Still light, but getting darker.

I've been on a tour of aussie and when i came back my Yorkie boy who is 3 (and been staying with my parents) has two large black patches of hair of his lower back! they assumed he was once again changing coat colour.

My Yorkie girl has also been there along with their chihuahua and none of them have any skin conditions or fleas (we don't do fleas

)?!?

Totally confused the hair is very healthy and soft but is short black with a few red strands.

Any help i am completely confussled

My new addition, Teddy, about 8 months old, is very light on top his head. Maybe he will turn gold too. I am anxious to see how he turns out.
