How to groom your Yorkie

How to beautify your Yorkie? Keep combing your Yorkie every day. You need to buy a special comb for combing. The hair will look smoother and more beautiful. Your Yorkie has long hair. Bathing your Yorkie regularly can make the hair healthier and more beautiful. Clean; comb and tie the hair on both sides of the Yorkie's head and ears to maintain the cute and charming appearance of the Yorkie.

1. Comb the dog's hair. Because the Yorkshire terrier's hair is very long, the owner must comb the dog's hair frequently every day to prevent the hair from getting tangled. The combing tool should be to purchase a special metal comb. This comb can comb the Yorkie's hair clumps and keep the coat smoother and more beautiful.

2. Bathing: Yorkies have long hair and it is difficult to rinse off the shower gel foam during the bathing process. The owner can dilute white vinegar with water at a ratio of 10:1. Pour diluted white vinegar on hair that's foamy and difficult to rinse, so you can get rid of the bubbles faster. Another benefit is that white vinegar can remove odors from dogs. If your dog has a strong odor, you can try bathing with white vinegar.

3. Grooming. The Yorkie’s grooming is very similar to that of the Papillon. The main thing is to comb and tie the hair on both sides of the head and ears to maintain the Yorkie’s cute and charming appearance. If unbalanced and excessively long hair affects the beauty effect, you can use scissors to trim the hair to make it look more balanced.

Beauty essentials:

1. There are some messy and fine hairs in the auricles of Yorkshire Terriers. For the sake of beauty and hygiene, they must be removed. Use ear hair pliers or your hands to pull out about 5 strands at a time.

2. This kind of dog loves to play. It is best to cut off the hair on the soles of its feet to avoid slipping when running.

3. Their long coat must be divided in the middle from back to front along the back line, and combed and smoothed to look beautiful.

4. The most suitable bathing cycle for them is once a week
