Thanks I'll try diluting the spray

I too have been searching boards for the "magic product" or formula that would keep Spicy looking handsome 24/7. He just looks like a ragamuffin most of the time. I blame part of it on his "teenage phase" that he's going through right now but the truth is I have a fear he will never outgrow that.

I want to keep the face long but may end up doing the puppy cut for the rest of him? I'll wait and see how he looks in a few months.

You guys have no idea how enlightening this is to me. I thought everyone else's babies were just gorgeous and that there had to be something wrong with mine. Thanks for the input. I love them anyway. Even scraggly they are gorgeous to me, but I do love the pics. after a bath and grooming.

I am also so relieved to be reading this... my husband gets on me for constantly picking at my Tobey, but just one day after a bath, his head looks all greasy, especially on top and around his ears. the rest of him is okay with brushing twice a day, but its not too long yet since he is only 5 months old. I wish the hair on his head would stay all nice and fluffy, but it just starts look flat and gross. I love how people are calling their little ones "orphans" or homeless yorkies!! HAHA! I tell Tobey he looks like a scraggly pup all the time and he just looks at me blankly. good thing he doesn't know english!

Certainly makes me and Uma feel better too! She looks pretty right after a brushing, but 10 min. after her hair starts laying in lines! Good to know it is normal.

I know what you mean about the hair on the head looking greasy in a couple days. My husband says she looks "unkept" when she hasn't been brushed and I have to laugh because I never dreamed he would be so particular. We are empty nesters and for sure she is our "furbaby".
