What am I supposed to do with these hairs?

[Ginny Merry]

My first visit to the vet with my new baby had him cutting the hair around her eyes so that it won't grow into eyes. He said she will have lots of eye problems if that is allowed. So I make sure no hair is near the eyes.

Is it the Invisible Hold you are talking about? Does that work better than the Pet Silk Topknot Gel? While I am picking your brain, is this the site you recommended for combs and brushes before? If so, which pin brush do you use? I think I will also order the Ultimate Comb. Good? TIA

I used the same gel that I used on my hair for along time but, I have found that using vasilene works just as well and also helps to keep that hair from drying out and breaking off.

This is a great thread -- thanks for asking it. I've been wondering the same thing. We just tried the vaseline on a new toothbrush and it works wonderful. Great idea. Thanks for the tip -- that's what I love about YT.

I'm afraid to trim around the eyes because then I know I won't ever have the pretty little beard that I see some dogs have. I'm gonna try the vaseline trick. Wish me luck!
