my yorkie's hair i just bought another yorkie, she is only 3mos her color is tan and some black on hair's ends but im worrying about how her hair is so thin... is this normal on some yorkies? :confused: |
Yorkies seem to have a variety of coat types. There's texture and fullness. Some have a silky texture and some a cottony or coarse texture. Just read the posts about grooming. Some of the puppies have a different texture and fullness as they mature and others stay the same. You could ask the breeder you purchased your puppie from about puppies she had sold previously. |
the guy (whom i bought my yorkie from) said that he he just got this from a friend and only saw the mother yorkie, im afraid that this is not a pure breed yorkie, though the features and traits are known to be of yorkies and papers are complete... thanks :aimeeyork |
papers don't mean anything..I had papers on a pomeranian once(it said she was full blooded, but, she wasn't)..I sent pictures to AKC, but, they supposedly lost them..so, just forget what the papers say;) Now, do you have pictures of your baby? Mine is 6 mos. and she has the silky hair, but, at this time, is's also thin, but easy to comb. My first yorkie was like this when she was small, now, she's 5 years and her hair is very thick, although, it's silky and very easy to comb through |
can you post pictures of your baby? My Turbo doesnt have the thickest of hair, but he is alllllllllll Yorkie. |
Some Yorkies just have the thinner coat. A Yorkie that is going to have a silky coat has a thinner coat than one that has a cottony coat. My first Yorkie had a very thin coat as a puppy and as she got older it got thicker. She is now 12 years old. Her coat was to the floor until a few months ago and I finally gave her a short cut. You never know for sure about coat until they get older. |
ok. got it! i'll post pic soon. thanks a lot guys!:thumbup: |
Jaxon had thinner hair when we got him - I found that using a good quality shampoo/conditioner made a HUGE difference (Chris Christiansen). |
picture yet? |
here are mikee's pix http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...2/DSC00029.jpg http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...2/DSC00034.jpg http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...2/DSC00035.jpg http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...2/DSC00033.jpg and this is matti http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...2/DSC00020.jpg |
I am sorry to say but Mikee does not look like full blooded Yorkie to me but she is cute. |
She is a cutie for sure...but I think she may be a mix.. a pom/yorkie or a chihuahua/yorkie!? Quote:

Thin hair Mya has a thick coat, some said it was a double coat. Not true, just thick or cottony but with conditioner when it is long it falls nice. I bred her with stud that has thinner coat his hair seems more silky and human like. I am hoping for a balance...lol. The breeder is keeping a boy from his last litter. He is 4 months old 0.7 oz, she said he looked bald when he was born but the hair came in. He fine, spunky, healthy and can walk UNDER Mya....lol |
howdee looks like a yorkie to me could be golden although not to standard a yorkie just like the choclates and she is a cutie.a few here have goldens maybe they will post and give you more info |
bought her @ $650, im kinda disappointed coz the person who sold me mikee said she's a pure breed or maybe he doesnt know (well,if he does, some conscience huh?) or maybe its still too early to tell...i dunno.... i can contact the person and bring mikee back to him but then again i decided to keep her.... thanks guys... |
she doesn't look to be pure breed...but she is cute! |
Pure Yorkie She looks like a Pom/Yorkie I have seen them before, very cute. |
She is a cutie but has some of the same look especially to her coloring and coat type of my pomeranian. |
There is a reason why you have been blessed with mikie. Last June my husband bought us a chocolate yorkie. We didn't care that he was a chocolate. Well our baby at 10 months has grown into 14 lbs of pure love. His parents and siblings are 5-7 lbs. Last month Chunk was diagnoised with retinal degeneration. There is a reason God has placed him with us. Chunk's mom Proverbs 12:10 |
