Question Who is Going Short This Summer/Spring??

I'm Still debating weither or not i should shave Brownie down Again. I'm starting to remember Why i never grow his hair out.
1.His Allergies are acting up Which mean's more oatmeal bath's Which is hard to do with floor length hair.
2.He like's to be a boy Rolling running, All that good stuff outside.
3. He has like a heater in his body He's alway's hot a shaving him seem's to help he doesn't have all that hot hair.

Right now he has that modified schnauzer/Westie look Shaved back Long on side's,chest & booty. & a westie short face.& topknot.

I'm thinking about shaving the side's chest booty off leaving the leg's long & growing out his face. & Keeping the topknot.


Who's shaving this year?

Milo went real short yesterday, he looks like a little pipsqueak. I tend to keep him longer in the winter and shorter in the summer, it helps with my allergies when his hair is short and he is rolling around outside it is much easier to give him a bath with the shorter hair.

We have actually been debating on whether to cut Magic's hair back a little this summer...she has floor length coat and it is in good condition but it makes her so hot during the summer months, but at the same time I love her hair and can't imagine her not having it anymore. It took so long to get her hair this long I am having such a hard time deciding whether or not to cut it off!! LOL

We are short year round but we live in Florida so it is a must here.

Me I think - especially Chanel - we have BURRS in some of the grass where I just moved too Grrrrr - but I think she needs a short cut due to the fact that she really pants after we walk every day.....she never did this before and I think it's from excitement but still...it worries me

I'm still debating, but I think I'll get slades body trimmed down and leave his top knot and face hair. he is black, so it makes him twice as hot.

Shadow is going short soon...in the spring/summer I keep him short but come fall, I will start growing it out a little longer again to keep him warm...he seems to love it shorter in the hot months....

I'll be getting a shorter cut for Snickers and Baxter this summer. They give me a hard time lately when I groom them because it takes so long with their longer hair.

They just want to play and rough-house, and the short cuts will make bathing faster too. Plus they love to get into the dirt outside, so it's a 'no-brainer' for me!

My two are always short but we go to the groomer tomorrow to get SHAVED for summer They are good for baths but hate the blowdryer so this makes it easier and I think they are cute. We save Sam's topknot though. Gotta love that ponytail!

Brownie also has hip arthritis So it's so hard to him to sit or stand in one position for a long period of time.

Here is a picture of Murphy - about as short as you can go without shaving. He likes it when he is short I think.

Murphy looks so cute, Caren!

I cut Brooklyn's hair about that short last year (maybe a tiny bit shorter on the face). Brooklyn goes in for his summer cut later this month.
