| That was beyond adorable!! Scottie is awesome, and I love his little booty in the bath. Great job with the video. You make the process look so easy. I always say that bathing my Yorkies is more work than washing and waxing my car.

Senior Yorkie Talker | Love that you posted this! Absolutely adorable! Your babies are so very cute! I give my little ones a bath in between grooming visits.... I wash the top of their head and the mouth Area real good but never pour water over their head or wet their ears at all, I towel dry and blow dry and they still ended up with an ear infection twice! What am I doing wrong and what's your secret?!!! I would love to free bathe them without worrying about getting their ears infected! Ty! |

| Jkpal, thanks! The lighting actually makes his coat look a lot shinier maxdog, hahaha yes, I totally wish it'd only take 1 minute! Think my fastest time is 30min! matese, thanks!! Scottie is actually quite good with being still. He's such a good boy!! Maximo, thank you! Haha.. the sped up video sure makes it look easy - but my hunched-over-the-tub aching back never thinks so chasingbella, thank you!! I find the hairs around their ears get oily, so when I bathe them I definitely wash it too. For some reason, when I pour water over their heads, as shown, I don't feel like the water gets into the inside of their ears. Only thing is I make sure to be very careful not to pour water over their nose - they start to choke up. When I dry them, I use the towel to massage the ears and get as much of the moisture out. I also trim back the hairs growing out of the ear canal every now and then, but I don't pluck the hair or use Q-tips to clean the inside. Plus...from what I've read, since Yorkies' ears stand up, there is enough air circulation to prevent moisture in the ear. Haha..so sorry, no real secret If you're worried about ear infections, maybe focus more on their health? My little ones are on Nature's Farmacy Probiotics Max supplements. I also read that adding a little spray of Organic Raw Apple Cider Vinegar to their water (we have the Bragg brand) prevents yeast, hence preventing ear infections (plus many many many other health benefits).

| Very Helpful Thank you for the video. I was worried about using a product on Rock Benji that would cause damage to his eyes. Your baby is beautiful. Quote:

| When I bathe Cody I put a cotton ball in each ear, I tilt his head upwards, then I fold his ears down and hold them when I rinse the soap off his head, this method prevents water getting into his ears, tilting head up prevents water getting in eyes and nose. I will say, one good body shake can send those cotton balls flying so I keep a few in my pocket for replacements, I also bathe him using a hand held shower head, that works best for me.
