| Pulling out bows Does anyone have this problem?Bandit who is a 7mth old male yorkie attacks my female yorkie the minute i put a bow in her hair,or now even a band and drags her by the head.I have another male ,who is the leader of the house,he never messes with his bow.Poor Brittanys hair is always in her eyes,she is so sweet she doesnt fight back,when I got the pup she thought he was her pup and she lets him do whatever to her. I feel so sorry for her any ideas ,would be greatly appreciated.thanks |

| I guess I would just give him a stern "no" and hopefully it stops. Maybe give him a toy to distract him and get his focus off the bow. Maybe someone will have a better idea. Good luck. |

First, welcome to YT, we're glad to have you join us. Secondly, yes..I have that very same problem. I have Desi ( my Yorkie) and 2 Chihuahuas. One of my Chihuahuas must be totally offended by Desi's bows, barettes, bands, etc... because he proceeds to grab her by her topknot and drags her around like a dust mop until he takes it off. So, the only thing I can do to keep the hair out of her eyes is I use small dark barettes that lay close to her head and match her hair so that they are not so obvious and I use the bows and colorful barettes when we go out. So far, so good, its working. | |

| Bad taste on bow... Wonder if you can spray the bow, with apple bitter, to discourage this behavior? MY GOODNESS, ...a girl has to do something to be gorgeous! Chelsea'sMom |

| I like the time out idea too. Mine don't pull each other around, but they will get each other's bows out. Silly babies. |
