Grooming tips much appreciated! I want to let my yorkies hair grow long but I am not sure about how to care for it. My other dog is a boxer & has very short hair so this is new to me. Any suggestions?? Also would like some tips on nail clipping since my yorkies nails grow much faster than my boxers. Thanks in advance |
We clip our Yorkies' nails once a week after their bath. How to grow long hair. Use Missing link suppliment. Keep it clean and tangle free. Never brush a dry coat. Condition, condition, condition. |
Thanks for the advice. Wow, a yorkie is a whole lot different than a boxer. I just use regular dog shampoo for my boxer (Simba) but I just started using my shampoo on my yorkie (MoJo) but i've never conditioned before. I'll have to try it. How often do you give yours a bath? My yorkie doesn't like getting nails clipped at all. He seems scared & that makes me scared also! |
I use cowboy magic on both of mine after a bath. I also keep some in a spay bottle for tangles. That stuff instantly takes the worst tangles out! I used to cut them out till I found that stuff. You can pick it up at a tac n tog shop (horse shops). Someone here told me its easier to clip nails after a bath, cause they don't make that loud clip sound that scares them. Make sure you use the proper nail clippers for this. Mine have a loop at the end, and came with the syptic powder in case it bleeds. Sypic stuff stops bleeing fast. I bathe both of mine every 2 weeks. Some bathe more often. |
