Red Leg? 3 Attachment(s) Someone Please help ! his hair got so thin and dry .. he has no hair on his legs. can someone please tell me how his coat will turn out? he wasn't like this at 2 months .. now he is appx 5 months and his coat got so thin !!! please send me pics of puppy/adult. Thank you very much |
Your baby is so cute. Having no hair on the legs could be a sign he is a red legged Yorkie. There are members here who will definately be able to tell you. Do a search above and put in red legged Yorkie. There have been many posts regarding this. You should be able to find them. Buddy is red on his head and legs but is not one. I know their hair grows very slowly. Whatever he is enjoy him. He's a doll. Carol & Buddy:aimeeyork |

I don't know much about red legged yorkies but your baby is adorable! :wub: I thought Chloe was red legged tooo but she turned out not to be! |

:) 1 Attachment(s) and NOW .. it got SOOO THIN and wow .. he looks so awwww .. i don't even like to say it .. cause i love my baby but he looks like an ugly duckling .. this pic is 5 months look at that horrible hair |
I think he looks cute. They do go through an ugly duckling period. Try supplements like Missing Link to help his coat? I am not real expert in this; just a suggestion. You know, I think he is really cute. |

What kind of shampoo and conditioner are you using? These can make a difference also and so can his diet. Carol |
1 Attachment(s) You are welcome. Here is Siu Pao's picture as requested by PM. He is only 5 months and he is 7+ pounds. His coat grows very slow and till now, isn't very long still. I have never cut his fur yet. Try buying a PH balanced dog shampoo for senior dogs as they are milder and for conditioner, I use human hair conditioner and I am also trying out Emu Oil both for his coat and it also helps sooths skin. What you feed them is also important. Your baby looks tiny. How much does he weigh? |

:) he was not ugly .. very very cute :) both of the pics :) |
Do what you can for your baby and love him for what he is. You and him will find it much happier that way. Every yorkie is different. Different coat, different colour, different body structure, different size so love him for being him :animal36 I have people telling me my baby is not yorkie when we go out. I don't even bother correcting them now. |

This is very true. No two are alike and not every Yorkie is show quality. Most are not! Enjoy your little one. He is adorable. Carol & Buddy |
My boy has very slow growing coat. Today, I trimmed the fuzzy hair which left him with hardly any hair. I didn't touch the face too much nor his head. He looks a lot like your pup and mine is 17 weeks. Both his parents have fine, thin silky coats. My boy has very thin hair that is longer at the body but none on his legs........it's weird but that is how it is. His hair doesn't matt and is so soft I wish it was my own......lol I have been giving him missing link each morning with a teaspoon of wet food. I see a NICE coat coming in his back! |

This is only a guess of course but it sure will be so fun to watch the progress whether Im right or wrong! |

Hi Kelly! Well, that is nice to know.........thanks. He does resemble his momma very much. His head is turning tan and has the gold nose.......sorta like a ring. His back is a super shiny, slick black. I LOVE his coloring...........it'll be fun to watch his coloring and coat in a year or so. He's still the same sweet little man you let me adopt. Hasn't grown much........just weighs more but it's hard to believe it due to his petite everything......lol This little guy has really complemented our household. I couldn't be any happier with him ;) Jess |
:) thank you very much everyone !! I'LL KEEP EVERYONE POSTED :) |
Where do you get missing link? |

His hair will change as he gets older and maybe he'll never really have the 'coat' you want - but too tell you the truth - if he's healthy - that's what matters - I'd rather have a healthy dog over any show-type looking dog anyday - and remember - beauty is in the eye of the beholder & Love is LOVE |
