Wrapping A Yorkshire Terrier

Preparing The Wraps 1.With wax paper make sure to lay the slick side down so that it will be on the inside of the wrap when you start working with the coat. 2.Fold the paper from the top edge to eliminate any sharp edges. The length you create this fold will determine the length of the wrapper. 3.Then fold the Paper in half with the first fold on the inside. All sharp edges should be to the inside of the fold.

Preparing the Wraps II 4. Fold in the outer edge that has the crease first. 5. Repeat step 4 from the opposite outer edge closing the wrap into a tri-fold. Make plenty of wraps for the entire dog. Vary the size of the wraps by adjusting the size of the fold created in Step 1.

Put Your Dog in Oil After bathing your dog spray him liberally with the Pure Paws Ultra Light Oil Pure Paws Ultra Light Oil and make sure the coat is saturated. DO NOT saturate the leather of the ears!

Wrapping the Tail When wrapping the tail always wrap at an angle. This helps eliminate much of the breakage. Make sure not to catch the tail in the wrap.

Fold that wrap one last time and secure the wrap in place by wrapping a rubber band around the finished wrap. Double check that you DID NOT catch the tail in the wrapper! Wrapping The Tail III

To wrap the hind quarters or section off about ¼ of the dogs torso. The parts should be clean and divided neatly. Wrapping The Hind Quarters

Make sure that when you are done with the neck that the parts are clean. Try to keep the packet as tight as possible. Wrapping at an angle can be difficult. Wrapping The Neck II

When making your parts for the head make sure to include the hair from the ears. This section is only ½ of the head the front of the part is from ear to ear and back to the neck. This is seen clearer in the next section. Wrapping The Head

Once the back section of the head is wrapped you can do the front. Keep your parts even and follow the top knot lines when making the front parts. Wrapping The Head II

Once both the back and front wraps of the head are done the need to be banded together to create a single wrap. Wrapping The Head III

Once you have both wraps banded together the wrapper should sit squarely on top of the head. Wrapping The Head IV
