How old will my yorkie be when her coat changes all the way?
About what age will my yorkie be when her coat turns to her mature color. Her face is already starting to turn and underneath her chin but her back and belly is still completely black. She is about 9 weeks now
also when should i start taking her to the groomer?
Also if i were going to get her spayed… when is the best time for a female yorkie?
She should have fully broken her color around 10-12 months.
You need to wait a minimum of 6 months before having her spayed. I would recommend 8 months. Yorkies are notorious for retaining their baby teeth. By 8 months all of her adult teeth should have come in and any that are retained can be extracted at the time of her spay, killing 2 birds with one stone.

Worked as a groomer for a while
I have had 2 yorkies and their color changes fast. Each month you'll notice a drastic difference. I would say by year 1 - 1 1/2 years their coat changes completely, it all depends on the dog.

there coats normally changed colour around 6-8 months, wait for her puppy coat to come out then maybe introduce her to the groomers for a pamper
