Hi everyone...I haven't posted in a while, but I've still been reading

.....I got a new pic of Mackenzie, I thought I'd post it for ya to see

...she is 7 months now...about 3 lbs 2oz.....so, from this pic, do you guys think she is going to be a cottony coat, or is she still too young to tell?

She is absolutely gorgeous. I'm not sure what her coat will be like. Sorry.

She is very pretty. If you take your fingers and slide though her hair it is a silk coat. If you find matting it is a cotton coat. I have one of each and they are really easy to define by how you can comb through their hair.

That's great I didn't know that. Mollie is a silky coat. Wyatt the puppy of hers we are keeping he's only 6 1/2 weeks old so, I'm not sure if you would be able to tell with him yet.

Thank you!

Sounds like a good idea, but I was actually more referring to the color of her eyes when I asked about determining what her coat was by looking at the picture?

some people say you can tell by the color of their eyes in the flash if its a silky or cotton, I dont know if its true, but I have heard of it.

I have heard this too...there was a post about it awhile back...your baby is adorable

red98vett · 09-11-2005, 12:45 PM

I looked at her coat and her eyes - she looks JUST like Chanel when she was younger ... Chanels eyes glowed red in pictures too - So....based on that - I'd have to say cottony - BUT - with good products the matting can be controlled ...they're just more work and she has VERY pretty coloring ! She's a beauty

Lots of people say if the eyes glow green = silky ...then RED = cottony but I've seen some yorkies glow Blue eyes too. I tend to believe in this because I have one of each - Cheri's eyes glowed green..and she does have a silky coat. Chanels red and she is cottony

Thank you! If Mackenzie looks anything like Chanel when she grows up I will be thrilled

Shes a beauty!

She is so cute! I love her coloring, Porscha is mostly gray it's amazing how different the same breed can be!

txshopper73 · 09-11-2005, 02:13 PM

It may still be too soon to tell. A cottony coat reminds me of a persian cat's coat. It's soft like that. But, anyway, I LOVER HER COLORS AND HER FACE! She is precious!

Lexi's_Mommy · 09-11-2005, 04:22 PM

My Lexi has a silky coat at least right now and her eyes glow a reddish, yellow, brown in most of her pics. My first yorkie had a silky coat also and her eyes just always looked black never the color of Lexi. However Lexi's coat is NOT as silky as Candy's was. I don't know maybe Lexi has a cottony coat and I just brush and comb her enough that she never knots, cuz knock on wood Lexi has never had a knot before....

By the way your girl is beautiful...
