I'm sure this is been talked about before but didn't really search that far back to find it.
How often do yall take your Yorkie to the groomers? And at what age did you start taking them? If you do small grooming at home what all is involved?

Willow is now 5 months I bath her as needed every few weeks or so, I brush her ever few days, I trim the hair on the tips of her ears to keep them standing, I cut her toenails. I have tried to shave the bottom of her feet with no luck at all.

I try puttin bows and clips in her hair to keep it out of her eyes but she will only wear them a very short amount of time before she either rubs her head on the floor till the fall out or paws at them. How do you get them to learn to keep the bows in? I just pick them up as soon as she takes them out and puts them right back in. Sometimes she will go a few mins others about 30 mins.

Any advice is welcomed.

Thanks.
