Actually, the photo of Cassie is probably around 6 1/2 months. She has a very very thick and cottony coat. Dezi has a simmilar coat but it's nowhere near as thick. I have seen so many different coats and I found info on a site that predicts what kind of coat and what colors they will have based on early observations like what color their roots are on their head at certain ages. (sorry, I don't remember which site it was but it wasn't long ago-try to search for it). Believe it or not, the thick dark coat both of my girls have isn't ideal and almost considered inadequate in Yorkie standards. I love it, but it's hard to keep them combed out! By the way, how did you come up with Mika's name? | I think Mika has a silky coat but it doesn't seem to be growing very fast, I can't wait for it to really get going! The hair on her head is very silky where her puppy coat has grown out, and there is info on here on YT about predicting coat type/colour. According to that she will be silky and steel blue/gold. I'm just impatient:D I can't wait to see what she might look like when her hair has grown!!!
I came up with Mika's name from a TV show in the UK, there was a female character named Mika and I thought if I ever had another daughter I would name her Mika. But we already have 4 children and my fella said "no more" so along came our new pup:D Mika will always be small(even though she is big for a yorkie!) so she will always be my baby! |
