I have a VERY SMALL little male Yorkshire Terrier and I have a female Yorkshire Terrier that is a tad bit larger than my male Yorkie. The male Yorkie's hair feels like a ruff coat on his back but the hair around his head and face is smooth, I tell everyone he has a ruff coat, but my female Yorkshire Terrier has a VERY smooth and soft coat. My question is when I let these two Yorkie's of mine breed with one another then WHAT will there puppies hair type be a ruff coat or a smooth coat? All answers will be appreciated. THANKS A BUNCH and have a nice day!!!

It depends on how dominant or recessive the genes are from each parent. Have you seen both sets of parents of your dogs? If all parents on one side are rough coated, and all on the other side are smooth, then the chances would likely be 50-50..
It would be safe to assume that your litter would be split..if you don't know your dogs' history.

Why are you breeding two tiny dogs? Please find out what you are doing before you jump into this. I have heard lots of stories about people who don't know what they are doing breeding tiny dogs together. Sometimes this results in fatalities because mom is too small to pass the (comparatively) gigantic head of her pups. Small females should not be bred.
And any way, why are you planning to add to the pet overpopulation crisis? There are millions of dogs being killed in shelters every day because of people that just HAVE to breed their dogs.
Be kind to your dogs. Spay and neuter each now. Just love them as they are without turning your home into a puppy mill. Your dogs will love you just as much. And you're not going to make money breeding anyway. Breeding dogs is a money losing prospect, especially if you end up getting a c-sectoin because mom is too little to breed.
