My question is this: For those of you who put their Yorkie’s hair up in top knots how often do you take them out? I have been taking it out at night and letting her sleep with her hair down just because I know how I am with a pony tail and I start to get a headache if my hair is up too long. I am probably putting too much thought into this huh? 
Also her hair is very thin up there - so you think it is due to her hair being brushed and pulled up too much? Thanks for the help. |
I don't think you're putting too much thought into it at all - I felt the same way about Oscar's topknot - surely it would start to feel a little tender in that spot if I left the ponytail in without giving him a break. I take Oscar's topknot out every night to give him a break and put it back up in the morning. He's gotten used to this routine and will come to me at night to take it out when he knows it's time.
As for the thin hair - I have two yorkies - both of them have thinner hair on their heads than on their bodies. I think it's natural for this hair to be slightly thinner. And I wouldn't worry about creating any baldspots by putting in a topknot everyday - just be careful not to pull/break hair as you are putting it up or taking it down and definitely give their little head a break once in a while.
