Did yours stay dark? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Kona · 04-04-2007, 06:59 PM

Kona is just over a year old (1 year and a month or so) and she is still the black and tan. Do I need to be concerned that she hasn't changed colors or is that just okay and normal for some?

I'v noticed usually the smaller ones stay blk/tan, but I'm no expert. How big is your baby? I THINK it should of started to change color by now. Mine is tiny and she stayed blk/tan, I know it's not the standard color though but I like it.

Kona is on the smaller side - maybe just around 4 pounds (it's been a while since we weighed her). So I guess I'll go by what you said, that's super interesting if that is true. Bernie on the other hand has gotten a LOT lighter, he's two months younger than her.

Hi, I wouldn't worry if your baby changes or not. My one girl Princess Pia will turn two years April 12th and she weighs just about 2 lbs. and is steele blue and tan head. My other girl Trixie Bear will turn 2 yrs. Sept 7th and she weighs just about 4 1/2 lbs. and her body is as black as can be and her head is a combo of colors. Since Pia is steele blue I don't think smaller size determines the color of the yorkie. I really love the dark black ones and unless your showing I wouldn't worry about it.

MY archie is 14 months and 3.5 pounds and has also stayed dark. I'd be happy if he stayed just as he is -- gorgeous!

Oh for sure! i love her color. My bf and I commented when we got her on how we didn't want her to change colors because we loved it so much. So I guess we are getting what we asked for. She still looks as dark as she does in my avitar picture.

She's not show quality so I'm not concerned about that.

I just wanted to see what others thought.

You're all the best!

WOW your princess Pia is ALMOST 2 pounds at 2 years old

she must be very, very tiny and is steel blue, do you have any recent pics of her that would be very interesting to see. Here is a pic of my little 2 pound 10 ounce girl Candee.

Ok, here's Pia for you

I tried to find a pic where you could see her color but to be honest the pics really don't show her true color

Anyways, here she is

P.S. The last pic is Pia with her sister Trixie

Oh and Pia loves to sleep in hats, so please don't think I'm nuts, LOL!!!

I love it when they stay dark! It makes them look like puppies even when they are all grown up! I like all of the colors though. My friend has one who is gold and actually a light silver..it is gorgeous!
