Stryker...Uhh not so much....The jacket looks like Hugh Hefner's pajamas.

He looks ready for work. Too Cute. At what age should one use wraps? |

Where did you get the wrapjacket? And what bands/size do you use with the paper? |
He's a cutie...he looks like he's smiling. Good luck in your endeavors. :D |

:D Oh Pam he is such a doll! It looks great and I am so glad it fits him so perfectly with a little room to grow! Love love love the colors you chose! Carl if you are reading this yours is coming soon--we had to do a little perfecting on the S/M size and she's making the orders now. :) |

I would keep them in oil and when you need to start wrapping just the back/front legs where the hair usually touches the ground first and then after they adjust, wrap the entire body. My pup LOVES to backstroke on the carpet (and do the down and back on textured walls) so I HAVE to keep a jacket on him 24/7. Pam, for the face it might be helpful if you start by loosely banding the mustache to get him used to something being on his face and then after about a month switch to paper wraps. |

Pam, Stryker looks adorable in his new jacket. I can't wait to see him in the show ring. |

Stryker's coat does look like Hugh Hefner's pjs! Adorable! So, how long do you leave them in wraps? Do they stay that way all the time when not showing? I have always been curious about this. Although Ben has floor-length hair, I have never wrapped him. I know the ends would stay nicer if I did, but it is hard enough to keep a topknot in this rowdy boy! :) |

Well I am sooo not the one to give advice on coat care, I am learning as I go. I have a good mentor and hope to learn more in the coming months. I believe most show yorkies are kept in oil while they are young and then as the coat get longer it stays wrapped. Stryker's coat is a little more than half way to the floor and if he shakes after wrapping (and he always shakes after wrapping) they fly off everywhere. LOL However the longer parts of the coats stay wrapped longer, so I assume that as the coat length increases the easier it will be to keep them on. Right now we are practice wrapping...getting him use to getting worked on and I'm learning to wrap faster. I do this as often as I can usually after bath time. So we are both learning. Hopefully some other REAL show veterans will jump on this thread and help you out. This jacket is soooo very cute. It has his name on the back of the collar...just love it. Kristena Bravo, I got it from her. She posted on this thread if you want a jacket. Good luck!;) |
He is just to precious!!!!!:D |
please explain :confused::confused: ok sorry if i sound funny but stumbled on this post and do not know anything about showing yorkies sounds like a lot of work so my hats off to you gals that are involved with that sort of thing :D but is hair wrapping help with the growth or texture of the hair :confused: please explain as far as how you do this :confused::confused: and what you put on the hair while its wrapped and yes your little playboy looks very dashing in his wrapping jacket thanks to all for taking a moment to explain this to me;) |

There are some great show exhibitors on this forum so I know they can explain better than I could. I'm just practicing now. Wish I could help more but I am learning myself. Good Luck! |

Jon-An's Yorkshire Terriers Show yorkies are wrapped so the coat will not get broken and damaged. You can find lots of other great information on YT and the internet on wrapping and yorkie coat care. |

Yes, Sebastien was too thrilled.I am bathing them both on sunday,so it's back to the wraps....Daddy's feeling better !! |
wraps and oil We all have our own favorite things we do to care for a show coat. I use emu oil on mine. For boys, the most important thing is to keep pee out of the coat. If they are not 100% reliable, I make sure to use a belly band. I wrap or band the hair under the belly band and redo those daily. Next I usually wrap the hair on the hips so that you don't get any poop hanger ons. I don't usually wrap the front unless we are going to be somewhere with carpet or grass or so on. Grass is very hard on the ends of the coat. When they are in full wraps I use a jacket but this isn't usually necessary until they are about a year old. Hope this helps a bit |
does this wrapping help the coat to grow a bit or just to keep it in show condition ....would do anything to help my fur babies grow more fur...any ideas... |
