this is one of my boys feisti and he is 8 mths old.problems is I thought he had a coarse cot texture but now I am not sure what it is or if he is still changing . it is beautiful but is slow growing and when I wet him it still does feel coarse,but the hair itself is really straight.any experts in here please give me your input.

well, I'm not expert, but it looks kinda like my Bengi's coat, which is not silky, but not cottony either, I think some call it modified silky coat. It doesn't get tangled that much, but it doesn't feel silky at the touch.

I think there is still a lot of puppy hair in there. Looks nice and smooth and strait from the pics, but I have an in between pup who sometimes looks both ways. Either way, it is a very pretty coat, color and sheen!

I'm not an expert on coat types but it looks just like Kitty's. Either way, It's very beautiful!

Yes, very beautiful coat. Pippin looks similar to me. In fact, Pippin is a little over 5 months old and I am noticing when I brush him that he has a second length that is growing in. If I take a small section of it and lay it flat against my palm, you can see the longer length, and then a second length that is about and inch and a half long. I can't tell yet if it is just getting thicker, or if the new fur growing in is a silkier texture. I kind of hope it's both!
