That is a blue born pup. Yes, as they grow, many develop painful skin conditions. Their hair doesn't grow out as normal yorkies do. |
I hope the baby will be OK |
Aren't blue born pups usually darker, or can they be like that, too? |
If it is a blue born pup you should not sell him and you should not breed the parents again...because you can pass the recessive gene and keep the genetic defect going. |
Was yours this color 4 Attachment(s) Hello I would like to know if yours is this color,they all were a bark blue brown,meaning I really did not know what color they were,the looked like a brown to me the first day, that was on the 22nd and today they look a little more blue.I just wanted to know if anyone has seen yorkie puppies this color before. |

I want to wish you good luck on your babies. Although I have read about the skin conditionns, I have also read that it does not happen to all of them. |

Can anyone find a picture of this color as they get older? Kathy |
Silver babies. How old are yours? They look identical to mine. Are there 5 babies? All that color? Is this the first time breeding these parents? |

Puppies that are born w/ a blue coat do not automatically mean that they are going to have issues as adults. Yes, there is a known link to them having conditions through into maturity, but that's not a guarantee. I know of plenty of blue pit bulls; weims; dobermans; shar peis and so on that have magnificent coats and great skin. It does happen. I do not advocate breeding for this color because the blue can have concequences in a breed that it's not supposed to be present, however. Simply because it's considered a fault if nothing else and the only real reason anyone should be breeding...especially such a popular breed...is to better it by adhering to the standard. Which one would not be doing if he/she reproduced another blue litter on purpose. |

pups They all look "bone blue" to me...some have health and skin issues, others do not..time will tell...chocolates are no more prone to problems then standard colored Yorkies..don't panic, educate yourself as to what may happen..don't sell it as a "rare" color for $5000...that is not what a reputable breeder does..best wishes |
Looks absolutely the same as mine except I have just the one in the litter that color. He looked very silver except for brown markings where the brown markings are on the "normal" colored puppies. He is getting darker as he gets older. This could be because the hair is growing. |
