| Cutting off his beautiful locks... For four years, I've battles to keep Teddy's hair neatly at floor length. There's nothing more beautiful than a full coat of silk. But, it's a lot of work and he just doesn't seem as happy as the others. So I'm cutting Teddy down. Our appointment is next week. It's the right thing to do for him, and I know e will still be a cutie pie

| I understand what you are going thru. I always wanted a yorkie and the main reason was because of their beautiful long locks. I have accepted that Mandie is just too much of a tomboy and hates grooming with a passion, so she's probably going to end up with a little less locks lol. *sigh*

| You will definitely not regret cutting his hair!! And, neither will he. It is so much easier and you will both be thrilled. He will certainly be just as beautiful.

| Oh, I get so sad when a pup with gorgeous long hair gets it cut off. Uni's can never grow to the ground so we are a bit jealous over here. Make sure they save some for you to keep!

| I havent touched Luma's hair a single time since shaving her at 5 months old. She's almost 1 now and I swear the hair on her body doesn't seem to be growing at ALL!!! ARGH! It's driving me NUTS! I want it to be floor length, but she's in that inbetween stage...and I'm tempted to cut it all off.

| It takes me three times as long to care for Rosie as it does Mikki. So I do understand. Sometimes I think it would be so much easier. But I just can't bring myself to do it! Teddy will look just as handsome as ever!

| Mikki is the same way. My groomer has clearly stated that her hair will never look like Rosie's.

| I've never cut the hair on Sophia's body (only the hair on her nose) and it's still really short. She'll never have a long coat, but that's okay, I still think she looks cute

| He is going to be cute, no matter what. (Gotta say, we understand the long haired battle here too. ) On a different note, how is the sleep going?
