Layla's Coat.. question I was at the Yorkie Fair this weekend and everyone thought that Layla was still a puppy because her coat is still black and tan. She has a bit of silver/grey coming in around her legs and her "hips.. if you will" is there still time for a silver coat to come in or is her coat done changing? i don't really care either way... i think it is great that she looks like a puppy when she is 14 months :) just wondering tho :) |
Cali is 2 years old next month and is still black and tan. She has some underneath hair that is silvery but all of her top coat is pure black. |
Simon is still black and tan too and he's almost 4 :) He has a few lighter pieces but he'll never be light like Hallie. layla is pretty either way :) Oh but Simon was a little jealous of her with all those boys at the fair~ |
Layla is just stunning, what a beauty she is. |
I kept waiting for Otis to turn silver, but he never did. At the time I didn't even know that some yorkies could stay black. But I think he's beautiful. He's cotton coated and stays in "my version" of a puppy cut. (He doesn't tolerate primping very well.) Check out the avatar. He's 3yrs old. |
I'm not an expert but I thought any yorkie that isn't truly black and tan isn't considered "show quality", not that most of us care. It's also been stated that one of the interesting things about yorkies is they constantly change color. So, who knows. I have a cottony coat blond and one that is darker but neither one is pure black and tan. |

Azrael is 28 months old and her body was totally black till just about 6 months ago and now has a lot of silver. The rest of her is still the same color though. The breeder said she has seen the really dark ones end up really light at any age. Funny how they can change colors. Zada who is really silver gray and blond, had both knees operated on last June, and when her hair started growing back on her knees, it was a rust color for a long time. And also the hair in one area on her back was also a yellowish. It's just now growing out the normal color it was before her operation. |
1 Attachment(s) Penny will be two in june and she is still black and tan. And with her ears down she too looks like she is still a puppy... But thats ok, puppy look for life, what could be better than that!!!:D |
My Mom ( Jackie ) and I thought Layla was adorable!! She does look like a puppy and I thought that made her so unique! We kept talking about her because she was sooo adorable! I can't believe she's 5lbs! Wrigley is just a tad over 4, but Wrigley is longer! |
2 Attachment(s) Do you have any pictures of your dogs as puppies? I was told that Lily was going to be black and tan. She is 4 months old in a couple of days and still dark except for some really light (almost white or super light tan) hairs coming in on the top of her head. Everyone who sees her tells me they can't believe how dark she is. She only got these really light hairs 2 weeks ago and the rest of her body is still really black |
Ben is 16 months and still black and tan, i kept waiting but it just never happened. Someone said it could be because he's soft coated and usually they stay black and tan? I love his black coat, its very striking. Indy was blonde and silver-ish by the time she was about 10-11 months (she's silky coated) and Malachi (in my avatar) is almost 6 months and has just started to get silver roots and blonde is coming through on his head ( i *think* he is going to be silky, but can't be sure). |
2 Attachment(s) ok here is Layla in July of last year .. so 4 months old... and here she is now.. almost 18 months. |

Maybe she'll still change, but I really do love her dark coat. |
I didn't know they were "supposed" to turn silvery???? My cottony monster is still black and tan, but not a very dark black. Kaya is silky and her hair is confused. You can see her pics in the GE forum. It's black and tan and silvery/brownish.... :confused: She is 20 months old. All the show dogs are black and tan, aren't they? |

I think Layla is so beautiful! I wouldn't want her to change at all! :thumbup: |
I think Emma and Layla are about the same age, and I think they have close to the same coloring. Emma was born in March of 2006-which makes her 17 months old right now-is that close to Layla's age? Emma's still really dark on her body, with a little silvery hair on her shoulders and hips. I think since Emma's a cotton coat, she will probably stay darker than some. I love her dark coat, and I hope she'll keep some of her dark color. Milli, on the other hand, is already getting her silver underneath her darker puppy coat. I'm growing her hair out since she has such a nice silky coat, but don't want to cut off the blacker hair right now. When I parted her hair yesterday after her bath, she is lighter underneath. Milli was born at the end of November 2006, so that makes her almost 9 months old. Milli's daddy is pretty light in color, and I think she'll look more like him than her mommy when she's grown up. |

2 Attachment(s) Just thought i'd say that I think Layla's coat looks kinda similar to Benjamin's, this is him. He's 16 months. |
brownies 5 & still black but hes gold Black & gold :D |
3 Attachment(s) Izzy just turned a year old and is still black with a few silver strands. Marcella, it looks like Layla and Izzy have similar coloring too. I think they are cute either way but it is interesting how they change.:) My best friend was bummed when I told her that his colors might change to a lighter shade...she likes the black and tan. So far, no big change yet. Just around his face..so she's happy! :p Here are some pics: 1. Izzy at 12 weeks 2 & 3. Izzy at 12 months |
Someone on YT told me that you can't show a dog that is black and tan - it has to be blue and tan or blue and gold! It's all very confusing to me though. Kalina looks like she will be black and tan like her mother. I bought her as a pet, so it doesn't matter to me. And Layla is perfection no matter what. :) |
Well no matter what, your Layla is a beautiful little girl! :D |

Kacee is silver and tan and now at 28 months of age I noticed along the hairline in the middle of her back that her hair is turning dark again - kind of a dark smokey gray. The new color has grown out about an inch, so I guess I'm never going to see her all one color on her back!:D |
Both my Shayley and Gracie have retained their dark colors and I think they are so beautiful that way!!! :p I always loved your Yorkie Avatar and I think she is so beautiful and shiny. Black and Tan or Black and Gold is one of the four colors AKC had on their registration papers, so "no" they should not all progressively turn blue (silver/grey). :p |
Thank you all for my daily dose of confusion!!!! :rolleyes: :D |
