I am in the same situation. But now I have to. Holly had a long coat and it was really really shiny and pretty. But she went into heat and I started putting a diaper on her. The hair would get caught and mat up and I'm sure it wasn't comfortable for her. Well I had to do a little trip myself since the groomer won't take her cause she's in heat. I tried doing a straight line but I'm not expert. I'm just waiting for her to get done and I'm taking her for a puppy cut. She's 8 months, I figure if I don't like it, it'll grow back eventually anyways. Plus, I'm more concerned with her comfort than the way she looks to others as she would be beautiful to me either way. I agree that it's a hard decision though. But oh well, it only hair right. Good Luck with your decision. let us know what you decide. |
