She has thin hair & I have been giving her solid gold seameal-read on here helps with hair growth, now I see -1" hair down the part of her back-hair on her body is about 5-6".. I am trying to figure out if this new hair growing in or is she losing hair (although I have not seen any shedding or hair anywhere) the 1" hair is mainly down the part of the back is this normal???
| I'm no expert and definitely not on parti coats. BUT I wouldn't be really concerned with her coat right now as it is still changing from puppy to adult. You will see several changes over the next few months. Yorkies don't shed but they do lose hair normally, as we humans do. It dies and falls off. Also, some may break off or the dead hairs may come off during brushings. When my Mandie was between 4 and 8 months, I noticed a lot of fuzzy/hair in the comb and brush and this was just due to her hair transitioning from puppy to adult.
More knowledgeable people can help. I've never heard of the seameal you mentioned. Where did you read that? Anyway, hopefully mimimomo or maximo or chattiesmom will chime in when they see this. We also have a breeder of parti yorkies on here (maybe more but I just know this one), named Julia. She's had a lot going on with life lately so she my not see this, but perhaps..
