You can do a puppy cut, all groomers know this cut and it's good for the summer!

It's what it sounds like, a shorter coat that you would've seen on your Yorkie when he was a pup.
Thanks for posting this! It's really important to know that dogs can't "cool off" quickly like humans do. Once they overheat, you're at a critical moment. It's best to put them somewhere cool and maybe drape a damp towel over their chest or something to help bring their temperature down.
