It may be a stupid question, lol, but I've seen alot of websites with showdogs and breeders that do it. So I didnt know if it was just for show purposes,or if it actually helped the hair grow. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, Thanks in advance, Kami

I have many long haired dogs and No you do not have to wrap their hair. Wrapping helps keep the hair from breaking. For the most part pet owners don't do this and many Yorkie owners have long haired beautiful dogs.
