when will my yorkie's hair color change My yorkie is 8months and her hair on her head is starting to turn grey/silver. Does all her black hair turn silver? I've noticed other yorkies have all tan hair. What colors were they originally? Just curious. |
My yorkie is head is starting to turn gray too. She is only 3 1/2 months. I saw her Mom and Dad and they where not gray. Will gray be her color or will it change again? Just wondering too. |
4 Attachment(s) Yorkies are like chameleon dogs... they change colors all the time. It's a big surprise all the time! My big yorkie, Smokey, was a dark dark grey to the point where he was almost black, but you could see light silver roots. Well, we got him cut down and he has been all silver for about 8 months now, but now I notice he's getting the dark grey color back! My other one, Chip, was mainly black when we brought him home and now his head and paws are all tan and his saddle is black, but has silver "highlights" as I like to call it. . Here are their pictures. The first one is of Chip at age 8 weeks and the second one was a few months ago. The third picture is of Smokey at 6 months when we first brought him home and the fourth picture is of Smokey a few months ago. |
The grey/silver on their heads usually turns to gold...and the black on their backs turns to silver. It can take up to 3 years for their coloring to change completely. |

Yep, mine was pretty much changed by 6 months . . . but now it seems to be changing a little bit again. Originally she was nearly all black except her feet and chest which was a dark tan. She had a splash of white on her chest as well as a few dozen hairs on her chin. Then, her head and feet turned to a strawberry blonde and her back was a dark steel blue. Now her head is much brighter blonde, her face a little darker strawberry blonde and her back is a dark grey. I'm not sure what color her back will be though, since I cut it in October and it is just now coming back in and started changing a bit once again. It seems to be a little darker steel blue with streaks of dark grey. Who said chameleon? They were surely correct. She is 14 months old now. I actually love that it changes alot. . . but then I haven't found one thing I don't love about my Sophie! |
Bella has changed A LOT at 7 months... 2 Attachment(s) ...but I think she has more changing to do...and I can't wait! :) |
Wow Bella sure has changed. She is a cutie. |
Bella's Mom, I just saw you live close to me, By any chance did you get Bella from a breeder in Monroe? That is where I got my Bella. I know it's a long shot but just thought I would ask. |

Thanks so much for clarifying everything up. I kind of like the silver look better so I'm excited how my little Bella is going to turn out. |
Gracie's hair changed at around 6 months. As for Holly, only her head hair has changed. The rest is black and tan, just the way it was when I got her at 12 weeks. |
My puppy's hair change 2 Attachment(s) I have a 6 month old yorkie that is almost completely silver/grey. My other 2 year old yorkie still dark black and tan. It's really weird. They are both completely beautiful though. I am waiting for Ace (2 year) to get greyer and who knows what color Jack will be. Maybe he will be compeltely white who knows! |
Welcome! first of all, to you and Ace and Jack. I would think Ace is the color he is going to be, at 2 yrs I don't think you will see much if any more changes. Jack, well he is only 6mths so he could go darker as he ages to a nice deep blue but again since he is so light already at 6mths I would think he will get a little lighter. They are both adorable and I am sure what ever color much loved. |
Twinkle's head was a very pale silver at about 3 or 4 months but is completely blonde now, so are her legs and chest. Her back is silver. Her colouring is very pale, which I know isn't standard, but I think it's really pretty:) xxx xxx |
