Well, I will be taking my puppy to the groomer in the next week for her first hairbow. For those of you that have doggies that wear bows...does it bother them at all? I can just see Maggie trying to rip them right out. She is such a mischievous little booger.
Tuffy tolerates clothes.. I like to put a cute shirt on him every now and then and he'll keep them on unless he's running around playing. As for bows, he isn't having any of that. I've only had a bow on him once and he hated it like you have no idea
He also seemed to be a little sore where the top knot was, so I don't think we'll be doing that again for a while.
Tiki won't have anything to do with bows or clothes
I tried when he was younger and he would just bite, pull and roll around until I removed the item. I figured ( much to my disappointment) if he wanted to be "al natural" so be it
Caesar doesn't mind clothes at all. I had just bought a little baby baseball jersey (3-6 month), when I entered Caesar in our fair's pet show. It is really cute on him.
Morgan goes in and pulls the stuff out of his bag and drops it in front of me to put on him! lol He tolerates the bows and after a few minutes he forgets he has them in his hair at all.
I think it is just a case of them getting used to the stuff. Bailey my Yorkie, gave me greif with his little hat and he is slowly getting better with it. His tuffed on his head is just now getting long enough to put bows in it, so he has worn them two or three times, but I am gonna hafta start using the cheapies on him, as he is not used to them yet and he pulls them out and destroys them by eating them lol
Sometimes when we go out to the park, or a ballgame I will put a bow in Brinkley's hair...but people make fun b/c he is a boy... <_<
I even bought "boy" bows. The one I usually put in is a baseball bow.
Anyway, his hair is not quite long enough, so it just sticks up in little spikes, and I have trouble getting the bow in withoug pulling his ears up too...he he. He tolerates them, but I know he prefers to be bowless.
My Maltese Finn came to live with me as a puppy last winter. Since we weren’t taking long walks and mainly going outside to use the bathroom, I started out with a regular leash. As he got older and we started walking more, I got him a nice harness. It seems to fit well, but he doesn’t come to me...
Hi again all, I hope everyone had a happy and safe Fourth of July. I did, for the most part. Sugarplum went on her first vacation since I’ve had her. (For those of you who are not familiar with Sugarplum, she is a puppy mill rescue I adopted just this past December, and she’s made great...
Every day since my husband has been working from home we eat lunch right at 12:00 noon. When we eat we also give Pipper a few pieces of melon as a snack. Well now as soon as my clock chimes 12:00 Pipper will jump right up from a sound sleep and run straight to the kitchen, exactly when the...
Zooey just celebrated her 13th birthday this week. Overall, she is in great health for her age. She has a slight heart murmur now, dry eye (on two medications), allergies (which she gets the Cytopoint injection for), is covered in sebaceous adenomas, has lost some vision and hearing, and...
