LOL - I can't even imagine how i am going to do this on a wiggly puppy when she comes on thusday! You guys make it look so easy, especially red98vette! How do you get your dogs hair to look so beautiful? They are just gorgeous! I guess I will just keep practicing - I have two boys, so bows haven't been an issue! LOL

LOL...Thank you and Chachi is so right - practice and repeating it every day gets them used to it.

what I did was alot of brushing to relax mine when they were puppies - then a TINY bow with only a little hair... secure enough to stay in... and get them used to it and gradually...

Then add more hair to the bow....I found that using little Bows..not something really big or overwhelming.. helped because once it was in - they never knew it was there.

The key is not to have them too tight...if it pulls - they'll try to remove it.

Do the Chinese Eye Test - IF you see your yorkie looking back at you with a Surprised look on her face - LOOSEN THE BOW !
