| Does this bow make me look fat? Haha... I know that the bow is a little out of season but I am getting ready to start ordering bows for Maddie (her hair is finnaly topknot length) and I am trying to decide on what size to get. She is wearing one of Copper's 5/8 Christmas bows as an example in the pictures And I personally think it looks like a good size, however the sites that I look at recommend a 3/8 for her. So now I am second guessing myself, 5/8? 3/8? I know there are bigger issues in the world today but I would love some input. What size bow do you order and what size is your furbaby? Also do you think the 5/8 bow looks like a good size on Maddie? or Should I order her 3/8?

| I know absolutely nothing about bow sizes or anything like that, but I just wanted to say that I think that the bow size looks perfect to me and Maddie is adorable.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I thought 3/8 was just use mainly for puppies. I like the 5/8 on Maddie, and I think girls can even go up one size to the 7/8-inch, and still look good. I've seen pictures with a female dog where the bow is oversized, and it still looks great. You need a great face to break the rules, and Maddie has that, so you could go either way. I sometimes use the 3/8 on Joey when I want to add a bow, but don't want to make a big production out of it. The 7/8 just looks weird on him.. So much depends on the dogs head size, not overall size.

| That looks really sweet on her. I would say it's the perfect size.

| Thankyou all for your input and nice compliments, I am going to go with the 5/8, but I am also going to order a couple of 3/8 tiny pairs (so we can try on some pigtails) On Copper if the bow is too big he looks silly but I agree with Nancy1999 girls can go alittle bigger, there are so many more options in the 5/8 too. But after reading the sites I didn't want to order all these bows and have my little dog with a bow that barely fit between her ears haha your opinions have really helped me feel good about getting the 5/8

Oh and I really love the pigtail look too, I don't know if she will be patient enough for me to do two but I am going to try. Hubby lets me do bows on Copper but NO piggies But that is why I have Maddie so I can finally try all these girly things
