| Do you use a conditioner? Conditioners really help soften the hair, blow drying the hair dry also helps untangle any tangles. I use a human dryer set to cool (room temp circulating air) setting. It's best to brush everyday & go over it w/a comb. Puppy hair tends to tangle a lot more & they're very sensitive @ this stage. What I did was just cut off the stubborn tangles w/blunt tipped scissors & brush them several x's a day. I managed to grow Momo's thick soft cottony, tangles when he moves hair floor length & chopped it off. Wanted to spend more time cuddling w/him than brushing him!

| I have heard you should never brush the hair when it's completely dry, so I use Chris Christensen's Ice on Ice and his Silk Spirits. Originally bought them for the poodle, but love them for the Yorkie.

| I like the detangler from Yorkie splash and shine. Yorkie Splash and Shine and it's called Yorkie Sheen.

| Prevent the hair from pulling the skin by holding the hair with one hand and brushing/combing with the other. Work in small sections. Right after a bath, when the boys are still wet, I use mainly my fingers and sometimes a very wide tooth metal comb (Madan from Jenny's toplinepet.com). I don't do any serious combing or brushing until they are closer to dry.

| Yes. The owner of the company breeds Yorkies and uses it on her pups. That was not dumb at all and I'm glad you asked.

| I use Yorkie Splash & Shine Detangler on Buster, he tangles and this really gets out his mats. I use it on Maggie although she doesn't mat, it smells good and they feel so soft after I use it.
