Default It's Cold Outside

Here in New York, it's really cold so a summer cut might leave your baby cold unless you plan to keep clothing on him all the time.

Your groomer should set the tone by the way he/she welcomes your baby.
Our groomer takes Johnny and makes him feel comfortable-holding, petting, talking to him, and talking to me about what I'd like.

One thing I never thought about was how you'd like the hair on the bridge of the nose handled. Some groomers trim the hair while others leave it to grow and drape over the nose, down the sides of the muzzle.

Some grooming styles may depend on the type of hair your baby has too--silky or cottony- and if there are knots or tangles.

Hope you have as great an experience as we've had.
