| Input on grooming styles Hi! So my little gal is a year now. I have been keeping her on the long haired side, especially face/neck area. While it is precious, I do feel after bathing or grooming, she starts to look scruffy very quickly. I bathe her every other week bc she does tend to get dry despite using high quality conditioners. I am wondering if some of you could share photos of an in between style? I don't want her super short, NY winter coming up. help! Thanks!! |

| I like Piper toss-ly so I'm of no help really. I do ask my groomer to leave the hair long on her little melon and just trim body coat. Carolyn took it upon herself to shave Piper's little legs so (I think) it looks like she's wearing caprice pants---too, too cute (no good picture). I finally realized that Piper is only going to look super-soft and well-kempt for about a day after the groomers and after that it's a quick brush with a spritz of conditioner so she smells as sweet as she is and looks presentable when we run errands. Below is a picture of Piper back from groomer--I had requested bath-only and the result is a puffed-out-Piper; needless to say, upcoming visit will include trim! But still, I just love that kinda messy, tossly, zingy look on Pipe and gotta say, we're both a little goofy so it all works for us! |

| Lol!! It's funny, we are SO ridiculously in love with this little one, but we have her pretty well trained so it always surprises people bc they assume she must be a spoiled yappy gal! She's actually pretty fabulous though trying to figure out how to post a recent pic of my little darling... |

| Pretty fabulous?! She is totally fabulous and well-trained, too? How wonderful! My little Piper is perfect--not yappy or anything, but she came to me rather shy and very sensitive, so no sit, stay training, per se. But she's such a good little girl that I haven't wanted to push. Eagerly awaiting pictures of your smart and stunning little girl...What's her name? |

| I've shown this image before on another post (the link below) and still think this is the cutest cut. This isn't my yorkie girl but I had wanted her to have this sort of cut. Since you're keeping yours on the longer side, perhaps the way the cut is around the face may work and leaving the body. I keep my girl's muzzle short like this pic and it's helped with make cleaning her face and keeping it cleaner easier. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/att...48fcb53851.jpg This may also be an interesting suggestion, but have you tried to use coconut oil or some sort of natural "smoothing/anti-frizz/shine" serum? Something that you would apply after the bath or after she dries. That should help keep her hair a bit more manageable and a little more neater looking.
