Golden and silver??? 1 Attachment(s) I've noticed that most yorkie's are black and golden...mine is golden and has a silverish back??? Why is this??? She is 2-1/2 years old. I'll try to post a pic.. |
Both Chachi and Jewels are golden with silver black also. They have black hair growing in with the silver. |
Blue and tan are the correct colors. I think the variety of colors is interesting. Some of the tans are blonde and others red. Some of the bodies are very silver and some very black. Non of those variations would qualify for show, but it does make the yorkie breed very unique. |
So is blue/ gold,black/gold, black/tan according to my puppy registration I am looking at. |
HI!! I don't know much about the colors.. I have learned a lot from the thread on here called "coats and Colors" that was posted by the Adminn., it's at the top of the threads, maybe that will help some. I really replied because I am from Michigan too. Your zip code is close to mine... I live in Howell. It is nice to see a fellow Michigander on here! :) |
My pup changed colors very fast. At four months, he was silver and light tan - and has stayed this way since then. He is very pretty and really a very handsome little guy! I have no clue as to whether or not his colors will change again - but whatever! This is just another thing that is exciting and interesting about Yorkies! Carol Jean |
Vivi was black and tan as a baby and now tan and silver...I think it is so interesting to see the colors change :) |
My baby has a silver head (she kind of looks like my Grandma). I'm glad you asked, I was curious about it as well. Gracie is def. not a show dog, but she is sooooo beautiful, at least to me. Do Yorkies continue to change colors, or stop at a certain age? |
Dori's Mom ~ yes, we are pretty close...I live in Owosso, MI! My yorkie was black with some tan on her when we she was a pup - are her colors not right to breed her?? We were just thinking about it. OH and regarding the AKC registration...what box do I check??? blue/ gold,black/gold, black/tan ?? |
On the registration papers I would mark blue and gold. To me silver is just a very muted blue. JMO. By the way, I think your girl is very pretty! I have a fondness for the very light colorings with gold. If you do breed her one day, I would look for a stud with the dark true blue coloring from a possible show breeder. Their stud should have great qualities so hopefully some pups will get the true blue coloring as adults and help pass on other wonderful qualities to your girls babies. |
