Schatzie has gobs and gobs of hair bows, all attached with those teeny tiny double rubber bands that you have to have pin sized fingers just to get the rubber band spread far apart enough to even think about getting it onto the Yorkie's hair.
Well...Schatzie has this "one" I repeat only "one" bigger clear latex rubber band that I use on her everyday. I can actually get my fingers in it, spread it wide enough to make a half way decent top knot. I mean, I guard this band with my life, LOL!
Well, finally after breaking myself away from Yorkie Talk long enough today I did a search on the Internet for some more of those "bigger rubber bands", and came across this web site on rubber bands for doggie's hair.
Come to find out, Those bows with the attached bands on??? Well, those ARE NOT to be used as the main hair holder, those rubber bands are just to be used to wrap around the already exisiting band.
I am almost embarrassed to say that I really didn't know that. And Schatzie has well, not worn too many bows because as I said, can't get my fingers in them to stretch them out enough.
So, I ordered over a thousand of the bigger latex rubber bands (the real big ones, ha ha and of course some new bows too. (the everyday bows, they had real fancy one's also but Id like to have those that they are calling "the everyday" bows. I didn't think the prices were bad either, that's always a plus in my book!
So, just incase I am not the only one out here on this forum that didn't realize this either like myself....
