| Top Knot help needed Hi! The dude must think it's very un-dudelike to have a top knot. He will not keep his head still long enough to tie up his bangs. Any advise? Please help! |

| I sit on the floor, fold up my baby boy in his bed so that only his head and sometimes front paws are sticking out, and put in his top knot while holding him prisoner with my legs. While I comb his hair, I compliment him and bribe him endlessly to sit still. |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Don't give up! The sooner you get him use to it, the better and easier it will be. Nolee will just sit when he sees me coming with the band! Good Luck!

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I have a soft baby brush and I brush his forehead and he lays his head right down on a little bone shaped pillow. I used cheerios to shape this behavior, but he has learned that the more patient he is, the faster I am.

| To begin with, I just do it as quickly as possible. Just get the band in. The more you do it the more patient they become. Mine are in a grooming loop when I do it, and that helps. |
