| Coat Color Predictions....for Sully's crazy hair! I know, I knoooow that sometimes you never really know what their "adult coat" color will look like... ...but I'm so entertained by his coat constantly changing colors! It is like his hair has a mind of its own! (Sully is 10mo. old.) Take a look at these pictures...notice he's NEVER had a haircut (we'll remedy this hopefully this week at the groomers...expect a photo post about it, haha.) Ok, so he has his puppy hair, then it changed to blonde...and if you look at the last picture, it's changing darker again!? See? His mom was what the breeder called a "salt and pepper" yorkie, and she was 7lbs. His dad was a "blondie" and he was 6lbs. Sully, like me, has an incredibly "long torso" and weighs 9lbs. But it's all for love! Anywho, let me know what you think.

| That is so cute! His hair's changing back and forth between colors...It looks like he might end up mostly blonde with some dark hair. How adorable! |

| You think? So he might be "salt and pepper" like his mom? I love the multi color look. He's so soft right now...just had a bath! P.S. For those of you who read my post this morning, freaking out...I am pretty sure Sully is feeling much better. He's acting pretty normal...but taking it easy. He still hasn't eaten or drank much though. Poor baby!

| Sophie's hair, on top of her head, is doing the same thing. It was black, then blonde, and now it's starting to grow in tan/gold...and she's only 3 months old. |

| My little Gracie is four years old. She's black and gold, I guess, but her entire head is silver. Strange, I tell ya. But she is such a real sweetheart and we adore her...strange coloring and all. Our puppy, Avery, is six months old and he's black and gold also....but I think his hair is turning silver at the roots of all that black. |

| I've never seen a salt and pepper...Is that blonde with a little dark hair? Either way, Sully looks adorable! |

| So do you guys think he'll be a blondie when it all stops changing? That's what me and my hubby think....but gosh, who really knows! I was hoping a more experienced yorkie owner would venture a more educated guess

| Poor Sully, he just can't decide what color he wants his hair to be! Duke's head and legs are blond, but his body is black right at the skin, and then as the fur gets longer, it is silver. He just received his summer cut, so now his body is all black, and my mom freaked when she saw him because she thought he was a completely different baby because he looked so different.

| Sully is beautiful. How fun to watch his colors change! I love surprises! Tucker is still all brown and black. I kind of wish it would stay that way, it just so fits his crazy little personality.

| Ok....we're going to get Sully groomed on Sunday at 3 p.m. - I think he will come back looking like a totally different dog, don't you? I'm going in there, armed with a whole list of "dos" and "don'ts" thanks to everyone on this forum, haha! Wish us luck!
