hi

could someone please tell me if the coat of a border terrier is similar to that of a yorkshire terrier.  As an allergy sufferer i was surprised to find that my friends yorkshire terrier did not affect me and have since been informed that border terriers have similar hair.  is this true?

many thanks

The coats are very different the Yorkshire is a silky coat and the border is a harsh.

Borders have a thich hard double coat that requires hand stripping, Yourkies have hair that grows like our own and is silky and fine.
