I wash all of bentley's head..He some how always manages to get dirty EVERYWHERE! i scrub his tear stains with j&j baby shampoo b/c it's tearless.. and i usually cup water in my hands to wash it..and i'll tilt his head back and poor water down his head but between his ears so no water really gets in them! |
Chloe and Lacey get a full bath every week and each day they get brushed and their faces and personal areas are wiped with Baby Wipes. Yorkies usually don't smell much after the puppy breath stage but my vet said it is usually because of something in the face area. So, if there is a smell, check out the face and body, mine will smell great from the neck down sometimes. I use J&J on the face and head. Yeah, I get that oh no, not again look but moms just have to do it. |
I wash every inch. I use baby tearless shampoo on her face and just really wash/comb it good because the food gets caught, and the water and they drool. She doesn't mind except the rinsing. And then she smells so good, and I don't mind the puppy kisses. I try not to spray into her ears or nose/mouth, but just let it dribble. That's the only part she doesn't like. I have not had a problem with any ear aches or anything all these years either like I did with my pekes. Best of luck... |
Oh Cute and your name is J Wash!! |
Asleep? Can I ask one question.... for those of you that bathe your Yorkies...are they ASLEEP while you bathe them? I just show Chelsea the towels, and she is gone,.... poof,... invisible....then I have to bribe her, so I can EVEN catch her, to give her a bath. She hates water, she hates shampoo, she hates toweling and she hates brushing! I must have one strange wittle Yorkie...she loves dirt, grass, bugs, birds, more dirt, more digging.

take her to someone else (nothing like hurting my feelings) Someone said to me once "Just clip her nails while she is sleeping" Sure!! Have you ever seen a dog jump 6 feet and head for the ceiling. I guess they all have their quirks, |

Bathing Maybe it's a puppy thing - Winston is just 13 weeks - but if I don't bathe him every other day he gets really stinky! :shocked7q I use a tearless puppy shampoo, and I wash his whole head and face. He is SO good about everything....washing, toweling, blow drying, and even combing his face, but he hates having his body brushed. :confused: I'm curious about the spray conditioner you guys have mentioned....do you recall the brand? I'd love to try it if it helps with the tangles without making him greasy...baths every other day is enough! :D Thanks! |
Teddy also gets washed head to paws...In regard to his head I use a wash cloth just like I did when my kids were little to cover his little eyes. He is used to the routine and does quite well... |
tired after bath Susan gets so tired from having a bath that afterward trying to comb her out is a riot. I hold her front end up and brush that while the back end sags then hold the back end up and she tries to reach the table to put her head down. She just can't stay awake. Also she keeps trying to climb out of the sink and up to my shoulders. I'm getting soaked and the bath takes 3 times as long. This last time she did a little better about staying in, even had her front paws hitting bottom from time to time. Is there something I can do to get her to stay put better or will she improved as times goes on? The poodle I had growing finally got to where she stopped climbing -- most of the time -- but it was always touch and go. |
Mine are used to baths and I do scrub their faces, not hard or anything, but I certainly wash them with their shampoo. I find that their hair on their faces is long and it gets dirty! I dont think it hurts them to wash it. They certainly smell sweeter when I wash their faces. They get a little nervous when their bangs get wet and cover their eyes, but I just hold them so they dont try to jump out of the sink! |
I bathe them all over being careful not to get shampoo in their eyes. |

:rolleyes: What kind of shampoo and conditioner do you use. My Sissy (10 mths) hair is cottony and i would like it to be slky and shiney. my other Daisy(11wks) has wirey hair |
I use Chris Christensen Shampoo, conditioner and Ice on ice. I now also use cowboy magic detangler because it is awesome for a cotton coat. Here is a link for the cowboy magic and you can find the Chris Christensen by googling their name. http://www.tobysnaturalpets.com/dog.htm |
