| I´m a bow makin mama Well I´m trying to get Miss Ofelia adjusted to wear a top knot, I´ve been looking for tutorials on how to make a proper top knot, bows, etc. Well last night I got my craft stuff together and decided to make her a couple of bows. She wore the black & white today and it went really well, she lost the button but that´s ok, now I know I need to attach it better. Do you have any tips, suggestions or ideas on what are esencials for her. I do plan to buy her bows but only until I know she will keep them on her head.

| Oh those are so cute! Good job right after I do lilah's top knot I like to have her so a few tricks for treats- she really likes frozen veggies and performs very well for those especially. It keeps her nicely distracted in case she was thinking of wiggling it out of her hair.

| Thank you, I don´t know if they are store quality but while she gets used to it they will do. That´s a great tip Lilah, I´ll try with treats so she forgets she has her bow on :P

| Try going to the Bow Biz site. She has lots of info about bows and pictures and a video on placement. Always remember our pups love to chew. never leave them alone with a bow on. A good groomer band is best when they are not being supervised by a human. Dog Bows, Quality Dog Bows - Yorkie, Maltese, Shih Tzu - by BowBiz |

| Thank you gracie, that is a great tip!! Today for the first time since I got her (a week) she kept the bow on all day long!!! Yey!! It´s coming off at bedtime I´m trying to stablish routines and that is a big one, she enjoys the grooming time and cuddles so is just a matter of time till she figures out the bow stays on! But I do appreciate any tips regarding this, thanks again!

Now she is a pro at this bow stuff but I think it is more because of the treat than anything else. | |
