| Hair in Eyes Need solutions keeping Ozzy's hair out of his eyes I pull it back and clip it or a rubber band which he promptly rubs out, I have put doggie gel in, he promptly goes and messes it up. I don't want to cut his bangs but unless I can get it figured out how to keep the items in I think I'm gonna have to do the drastic!!!

| Try putting in his topknot and taking him for a walk right away, or play fetch. Anything to distract him. Make sure the topknot isn't too tight.

YT 2000 Club Member | I am having the same problem with Tatiana. Her hair on the top of her head is very fine. It doesn't help that when she does leave it alone....her sister goes and take the bow out! I think she is just jealous! Lol

| I've been experimenting with how to pull Huey's hair back where he will leave it alone, and one of the more successful styles has been to braid it. I think because it doesn't pull like a topknot, he can ignore it. One braid lasted 3 days (a record!) and the only reason I took it down then was it was getting a little messy looking. It probably would have lasted another day or two had I left it alone.

| Ozzy's hair is quite long enough for a braid but I would like to know your secret in keeping your doggie still?!

He has always been a to groom, according to several groomers, but for me the chase was on...until I bought the table. He knows that is where he holds still. Multiple treats during grooming also help.

| Cinders can get a bow out in less than 5 mins. I don't think I can help, but putting her on a table or counter top to brush her does seem to help with her wiggling. She stands still long enough to put bands in and a clip bow. Once you get the band in- gel the loose pieces to stay where you want them. A treat after helps too. Mine seems to sit for that extra 10 seconds when she sees the treat close by. That also keeps her busy enough afterward and she forgets the bow and top knot are in.
