How often are you bathing? I bathe Huey weekly, sometimes 3 times in 2 weeks in the summer. Be sure and use a good shampoo, preferably a yorkie shampoo like yorkie splash or similar, and be sure and condition him well. The shampoo I use isn't a "yorkie" shampoo, but it is called fresh scent by therapet and it has a matching spray that can be used between shampoos to keep good smelling, but I never have to use it because he still smells good a week later. I am disappointed that I can no longer get the matching conditioner. I can't find it anywhere on line, but I use regular people conditioner and he stays silky and reasonably tangle free.
