Hi,

My puppy, Coco, is 4 1/2 months old. While her hair is really not completely long enough for a topknot, her 'bangs' are pretty long and need to be 'controlled'. I had a Yorkie for 15 yrs. and had a topknot in her hair every single day. However, I do not remember how I 'trained' her to stay still long enough to let me fix her topknot. I have the tiny elastics, but, she just won't stay still. Does anyone have any secrets or tricks to help get her to sit still??
Thanks in advance for your advice.

Pam
