| Is it normal? My Bella is 10 weeks old. Is it normal that the hair on her head is thin? and the roots are turning white??? I know that yorkie coats change colors, but is it too early?

| All Yorkies coats change at different times, but yes, it is absolutely normal. My Belle's roots turned white first and now are tan. She is 10 months old now. It probably seems thin because she has a silky coat,too. The yorkies with soft cotton coats tend to have thicker hair.

| ^^I agree. Teddy had a white topknot. After he turned 2, his head started turning gold. Max is almost 3 and his topknot is getting really thick.

| Ziva had 1/2 " of white by the time I got her at 12 weeks . she turned white , then silver- like my avatar(18 months), and I thought she was just going to be like that.Just before she turned two the silver faded and now has come in as a very definite champagne gold. Her hair is fine and silky, too thin for much of a topknot but a breeze to care for! |
