| Bows I really want to be able to put bows in Fynn's hair to keep it out of his eyes. I really do. But, here's my issue - he's a little terror. I can not get him to sit still! He fidgets, he tosses his head, he tries to bite and eat the bow, he bites at my hands, he squirms and wiggles and wriggles and writhes. How, in the name of all that is good and calm, do you get the stupid bows in their hair? I thank you, in advance, for any and all advice! I'll attach some photos of his unruly hair!

| Wrap him up in a towel and put him on your lap then put the bow in. You wont havve to do that after a while he will get used to it. That works for brushing too

| Fynnlie is only a baby. You have to be patient with him. There may be some good advice in the grooming section Some of the messages in these threads may help: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...-wear-bow.html http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...hem-still.html

| I wrap him in the towel after I get him out of the tub and and brushing him out. He squirms and bites the towel and tries to bite the brush.

| I sit on the floor and put Mocha between my knees to keep him still. After a while he learned to be still. He signs a lot because with a dumb mommy like me, he has to be patient or else it will take a long time with all the re-do's. He learned to be still so I can be faster |

| I have found it to be easier to put bows in Bellas hair when I put her on my vanity. No room to move. After I put the bow in, she gets a treat. I always go for the tummy. |

| Fynnlie would launch. I kid you not, he'd take a flying leap. I'm not kidding when I call him a terror.
