Itchy? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

So I just gave Angelo his first bath since I got him and he wasn't as jumpy as I thought. He tried to get out a few times but mainly just stood there. I was trying not to get water in his ears but I did. After I finished, he started rolling around like he was itching or something. I think it's weird because I had just gave him a bath. He does that other times too but it seems like he's playing then but this seems more itchy because he isn't biting anything. He is just going from object to object rubbing against it. Has that happened to any of yours?

He's not weird, lol, he's all Yorkie! They all try to rub the wet off. Try a blow dryer so he doesn't catch a chill, or warm a towel in the dryer to dry him quicker.

Lol they will lay on their side and slide across the carpet, I love watching them do this lol. Mine do it even after blowdrying to dry their ears.

My JoJo has to have 2-3 towels ready because he scoots all over them. Spud will go rub his face on the side of the chairs. Yorkie behavior is so funny. Each one so different but cute!

This is the most fun time of the bath experience with any dog. Sit back and enjoy and laugh. Both Shelby and Mandie do this to help dry their hair. It's a riot!

My Schnauzers do it too! They are funny to watch. On another note...I heard that you can put cotton in their ears, as long as you don't push it in too far. That way the cotton catches the water. My groomer told me about this. Hope it helps.

Hmmm.....I need to see if Teeka will do this! I have always towel dried her, then combed & blow dried her right away......Max runs around like a maniac after his bath! So funny......
