| Brushing when dry?? Okay, I am confused, we are told that yorkies need daily brushing...we are also told to bath about once a week...thats all fine ~ but I am reading all over not to brush when dry??? Okay so does that mean to bath everyday?? Or does that mean to brush only once a week when you bath?? I'm really confused, I don't want to "break" her hair by brushing her...what do you all do?? |

| Conditioner In your local pet store (or browse to see what people use), you should be able to find conditioners that you can spray on their hair before you brush. I've seen several products people have mentioned here that are excellent but they're harder to get (i.e. Ice on Ice). The one I use right now is Earthbound, Vanilla & Almond. It has a very strong sweet vanilla smell. Anyways, browse around! |
