Curly haired yorkie?!? Okay...so I thought it was just because of the length of his hair...but after looking at everyone's pictures I'm not so sure. My 6 year old yorkie has...curly hair. And yes, he is pure bred. He is registered with the AKC. When he gets wet his hair looks like a BAD perm...and it doesn't get much better when it dries... Does anyone else have a curly haired yorkie??? |
we love pics! I dont have a curly hair yorkie he's wavy but its still puppy cota. Id love to see pics of your baby!! :D |
1 Attachment(s) My Tootie has lots of "waves" in his hair. He is CKC registered but some say a "poodle" got in the chocken coop... I couldnt ask for a better boy than my Tootie! He is 2 years old and has never had a "hair cut".... d |
I have a good friend that has a yorkie with very curly hair. I used to tell her he was a yorkiepoo and sometimes call him "Poodle" (just joking with her)...she actually calls him "Doodle" sometimes because of it as a nickname. When his hair gets kindof long it gets very poofy. She will keep in in a very short cut but lets it get a little out of hand before grooming him again. Some yorkies just have wavy or curly hair - technically by AKC standard it's a fault and not comformationally correct but a yorkie can have curly hair and still be a purebred yorkie. A lot of yorkies don't meet the standard but are still purebred. I see a ton of maltese with curly hair (supposed to be straight)- I can hardly tell now if a dog is actually a maltese or a maltese/poodle mix most of the time. Yorkies can come in all shapes and sizes :) |
2 Attachment(s) Waves doesn't begin to explain it! HAHAHA! Here's some pictures. |
I love his hair!!! |

I like the curly hair. I think it makes him unique and special. Very adorable baby ya got there :) |
2 Attachment(s) maggie has a patch on her back that is very curly. it drives me nuts but i am hoping it is just still puppy hair. most of her hair is pretty straight, but there is this one patch.... in the second picture you can really tell the different textures on her back. this was right after a hair cut and good brushing. |
I groomed a curly haired one last week. I try to dry it straight. It worked for awhile. But!!!:eek: after about 10 min it begin to look like a poodle that needed a good comb picking..LOL:lol tears I laugh so hard and my new styling do. It look like something out of the 70"s I rewashed him and dryed him cruly..He looked very handsome |
princess has very curly hair.. it happened after i cut her hair really short.. then it just started getting curlier and curlier the more i washed it! :confused: she's purebred and both her parents have long silky hair.. i guess she got the curly hair from me :D sometimes after blowdrying her hair, i will put her PJs on her and take it off the next day, and WA LA! straight hair! :) |

Bernie is REALLY curly. I blow dry him straight after every bath, then he just looks really wavy :) I'll post pics of him without a blowdry if I can find any. |
Emmy's hair is wavy too. I think it's cute. Jackie |
I can't seem to get a file to upload of Adonis. Resized 2 different times and still didn't work. But he has really curly hair too! I now keep his body cut real short with the Whal clippers, cause he hates me to de-mat him. Was the only option I had left, was keeping him short, or him staying matted and looking a mess all the time. Adonis is also AKC registered. Tried letting his hair grow out again last year, and it was a disaster! And he didn't like sitting still to get that top knot dematted, much less his body. Gave up, and clipped him back short this past spring. Had I found yorkietalk when he was a puppy, I'd known to start him right off on the grooming. I did that with Venus, and she'll lay in your lap and let you comb her all night long. |
Hi your little guy is cute and yes he is likely a pb Yorkie. I have seen quite curly hair on Yorkies on occasion in the pet grooming I do. I have yet to fathom how come there is a curly gene floating around int he Yorkie somewhere but I wouldn't worry about it. |
My sister's mother n law has two yorkies and one of this has curly hair. She is the only one I have seen that way. |
I like to tease him and tell him that he isn't purebred just because he is a teapot AND has curly hair! He isn't too happy when I say that though! I've tried blow-drying but that just gives his hair a staticy look...so I've just kept it pretty short. His hair in the picture is the longest he has ever had it...and he's getting it cut soon (he's starting to mat). I'll have to try batheing him then putting on his pj's...normally I let him dry first then get him ready for bed. He's my unique little boy and I wouldn't trade him for anything! |
They generally get the curly hair if they have ever been shaved down. Sometimes it stays curly even when it grows out, but not all the time. |
Hi, I am new to this club as of today. My little Lizzie started out with strieght hair and slowly turned curly by 1 year. She is adorable. She is strieght on the face with waves on the leg. Some say she has the nice yorkie hair. Very soft, very managable. She loves to be groomed. I think if one looks at the history of the breed you can see where the curls come from. I think its a treat to have a curly little one. My Lizzie is 2 1/2 years old. She is 63/4 lbs. She is black and tan...not gold but light tan. Glad to be here, Lee |
Your curly-haired younguns are cute! And, since they are not used for breeding, their hair only needs to make you happy. IF, you really want to know if there were another "chicken in the coop" you can have them DNA tested thru at least 3 labs. The price has gone way down for the test and it is affordabe. AKC reg. unfortunately, only means that the breeder could either fill out a reg. form or do it on line, and that the parents are registered. Anyhow, your babies are cute and as lovable as if their hair were show ring silky. |

Padre has curly hair too! He's AKC certified, pure bred,etc...but his hair definitely has some wave to it. I absolutely love it though! When we blow him dry, he gets really poofy. The curly hair looks absolutely adorable with a puppy or teddy bear cut too....:D |
A Chi breeder in Australia had this response when her friend said that the Chi the friend had bought did not look like every other Chi she had seen. I love this response "It matters not a twit the looks, as long as you love your dog!" Doncha love that one? |
Curly haired Yorkies are adorable. :D |
I like the curly hair, very nice. Anything to be a little unique! :) |
Yup Teddy's is just like yours, when i just let it dry without combing it his body, and butt hair is curly, i actually think it's so cute, it just adds to his crazy personality. One time i used my bf's curl cleanser on him and he had the nicest curls, but it's weird cause the hair on his head and legs is straight, its just on his lower back and butt that it's curly. But if i blow dry it and comb it, it looks puffy. I wish i had a pic of it |
haha either way hes adorable!:D |
