Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | I like Yellow and Turquois myself on my girls...I'm curious too if there's a reason but it could be just a great color that goes well with Yorkies gorgeous coloring. Could be it photographs well too ? |

| I think I read somewhere that red is a good choice because it complements the breed's hair color. I might be wrong....

| Red bows are most common at a show because it highlights their gold/tan facial coloring. |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I agree, and also the fact that red hasn't been relegated to one sex or another, like other colors have been.

| I always wondered this too! When Barney was a wee tot, we put reds in his hair. He would poke his little head out of the spindles of the bannister on our staircase and all you'd see is a little red bow and a button nose. When I started to make my own bows I moved to all colors for the dogs but I have to say that I still think there is something really classy to the red bow on a yorkie

Donating YT 500 Club Member | You're right Lesley. I've also seen Orange/coppery colors used.

| I prefer pink on Daisy too but for my blonde Barney, red or royal blue is usually my pick.

| They use red because it compliments the color of a yorkies coat better than any other color does... and it's gender neutral.
