| Does anyone massage their yorkie? I have found that they love getting massages over their bodies. It really helps us bond and calms them down when they are anxious. Now if I could only find someone to return the favor.... |

| I do massage my babies, but I call in the professional, for my studs I hire a SOMOTOTHERAPIST, to do a treatment, before I require them to preform. Have they got it made, or what?!!!

In between massage, and physiotherapy, it works all of the soft tissue. Google it, I have treatments done on myself as well!

| Maggie constantly wants her ears massaged, she will stand on her hinds on our laps and put her head on your chin until you do her ears! She is relentless. lol I give them both a massage at bathtime. I try to give their little arms and legs a massage whenever they are laying one me but after awhile they pull them back in and show me their belly for belly rubs instead.

| My babies LOVE getting a massage. Especially Brody and Lily they close their eyes and sometimes even fall over they become so relaxed. It is the cutest thing.

YT 2000 Club Member | Jasmine really loves to get a good head massage after I take her ponytail down. She will look so goofy while I am massaging her head, like she is in a trance. She just smiles and has that glazed over look in her eyes. She loves it! LOL

Donating Senior Yorkie Talker | Yes! I've been massaging Manolo ever since she was a pup, (I think she does enjoy it). I got a free pet massager when I bought her a tent, and I use it on her sometimes. She seems to like it!!
