Thanx for the grooming tips guide it has helped out. I have only had my shorkie for a little over a month and have had to learn how to deal with the grooming situation as her coat can become matted quite quickly if not brushed daily. SO thanx a million!

This information is great - but I'm wondering about grooming tails.

I have not taken my furbabies to the groomers in at least a year because everytime, I did they would trim up the beards and face hair too much and mine have long coats.

I've tried to trim them up myself, but I haven't trimmed their tails because I don't know what a tail on a yorkie with a long coat should look like. lol- I can't remember what the groomer did with their tails.

Can anyone help me?

her coat can become matted quite quickly if not brushed daily.

Daily brushing is an excellent routine for good coat and skin health. My sister found a conditioner (used after shampooing) that really makes daily combing so much easier as it prevents the mats from forming. It is "Gold Medal Formula 30". I used it for the first time on the week end and am totally impressed.

Have a Great Day

I am new to Yorkies ands new to having a dog. I adopted a 3 yr old from a family member. The dog was showing off because of a nw baby. I already knew the dog so I was so excited to get him. He has been a joy. I am looking for tips on giving the best care. Im taking him to vet and groomers this week but the best tips come from those who do it every day.

Thank you so much for that site about grooming your yorkie. Duncan loves to be brushed but the teeth are another thing. I have done simple trimming of his coat but I would like to do more. The nails I have tried but he screams like you wouldn't believe when he sees the clippers. I have not ever hurt him cause I can't even get him to stay still long enough to try. I will try the teeth again now that I have read all about it. thanks
