Donating YT 500 Club Member | You'll need to keep her coat clean, by bathing 1-2 times per week, dirt is damaging for the coat. You could try keeping her coat in a conditioning oil and wrapped for protection. Or, you could try a silk jacket to help protect the coat. Btw, I think your English is fine

| I've never used it, but some swear by IV San Bernard's "PEK conditioner." Iv San Bernard - Italian company leader in the cosmetics market for dog and cat, dog shampoos, grooming equipment

Sigh you need her coat examined by an expert Yorkie Breeder. Wrapping, yes moustaches, topknot and body must be wrapped. Now to silkify that coat, you need Top Quality Shampoos n Conditioners. OMG, there is a line available in Europe..... I have to ask my breeder. But weekly you need to nuture that coat!. Great food, water, exercise. Then you need wrapping with appropiate oil/conditoner or mix there of. Yorkie are one of the "hardest" breeds to maintain in show condition. I know I have one. Private message me if you have more questions.
