| Still has the puppy coat. Did you get your other yorkie as a puppy? Can you recognize similarities in their coats at that age? I would just take care of the coat and keep it trimmed to look nice. Is this a full yorkie you are speaking about?

| I'm only guessing, but I imagine your first yorkie had a cotton coat and, when this second yorkie matures, you will have a silky coat. You did say it was thin and I, personally, have found that those who have silky coats have a thin coat as puppies. Don't be dismayed. The puppy coat doesn't last that long.
