Any of you have a yorkie with short hair that does okay in the snow?
Has it caused you problems? Has anybody had it long in the winter before but have also had the fur short in the winter, if so, what were the pros and cons of both? Do you think its a good idea???? 
BTW- I was thinking about getting it cut toabout 2 inches long. But keeping her "mane" ..lol |
Hey fellow cold Canadian
I keep Layla's hair short for 2 reasons
1- yorkie as we know don't have an under coat so long hair or not- they will be the same amount of cold regardless of whether their hair is long or short
2- the snow balls- we spend SO much time brushing out snow balls from her fur and she HATES it....
so as long as you are bundling her up- which i'm sure you are- long or short hair makes no difference- so i would go with short. Also when the long hair creates the snow balls it keeps the cold closer to their body... so for that reason too i'd go with short
