Don't worry, they still look adorable! I had to do the same for Kiba when he was just starting to grow out--his hair was so easily prone to mats and tangles, so I went ahead and cut them off myself. My poor baby had to go through an ugly stage (I have pictures to show for it

). But hey, whatever makes them comfortable, right? Luckily, now that he's older he has wonderful hair now that never gets tangled or matted.
