Tibbe hates them. I think a lot of dogs just don't like anything semi-permanently fixed to the top of their heads. They have to live such domesticated, "humanized" lives that I let mine skate on this as I can keep the hair short and puppy looking on top so it doesn't fall in their eyes. I always feared I would be gone and a dog of mine would work the bow/clasp loose and it could fall down still attached further down along the top knot hair and keep bumping into his/her eyes, maybe hurting a cornea, while I'm away, causing the dog to keep pawing and rubbing at it and hurting its eyes further that way. A dog will worry at something loose until he's hurt at times. I know - I worry too much but where my dogs are concerned, I can't help it. I'm a paranoid nutcase for them and the trouble they can get into and I'll admit to it.
