I forgot to add earlier that when Max was battling a corneal ulcer, I was reluctant to use any hair products on his head. To keep the stray hairs out of his eyes, I put his topknot hair up in "pigtails" with little scrunchies. Surprisingly, it didn't look too feminine for a boy. In fact, the vet and everyone at the vet's office complimented the hair style.
Every once in awhile, I give him pigtails.
