I know the feeling... I know I can come across as being rather caustic myself, when I don't intend to.

Well "V" You know I'm a show/breeder, so my boys do wear bows...with sparkles and rhinestones and crystals, bows that I make, special color for their gold, special size for their heads...now talk about Compulsive/Obsessive...that's me. I don't think they give a darn that they have a bow in their head as to whether it's sissy or not...heck! every other boy dog in the ring has one too. When they're home their topknot is kept in wraps to protect it.

I first heard about it in a training book I bought. It's called Tellington Touch (or T-Touch). It involves extremely light massage that is very calming. Having their tummies surrounded by fabric has an extremely calming effect on some dogs. Luckily my Harley is one of them!

That's a great fact to know. I'm so glad it works for your Harley! It's like wrapping an infant in a baby blanket to make them feel secure. It worked like a charm for my (skin) daughter when she was tiny.

Max won't wear anything in his hair, but I bought some black bows, barrettes and rubber bands. They look nice sitting on the shelf!

He also won't wear clothing. He freezes and puts his head down. I just don't think it's that important since he really doesn't want them on him. He does wear either a black hoodie, a Yankee jacket, or a really cool red velvet vest with tigers embroidered on it - very male - when it's cold outside. He likes hose, but would not wear the cutest, warmest black parka.

It's all up to the owner, I think.

Sometimes, I'll find one of my own posts and cannot believe how bad my editing has become.

Just to let you know, Max does not like "hose" he likes his jackets. It sounds like he has a stocking fetish!

Do you guys remember Sanjaya's "faux-hauk", from american idol? I bet that'd be a cute look to pull off on a yorkie.
