How short is a puppy cut? I cut my yorkies myself. But with my biewer I wanted to see a professional at work. Well I think I made her nervous. The groomer that is. So Ella's cut did not exactly turn out as I had envisioned.

The full coated biewers go to the groomer once a month for a bath, feet trim, nails clipped. I only have full coats on those that are in the show ring. Abbi has always been in a puppy cut. My Havanese is also in a puppy cut--he has two layers of coat and is impossible to keep in coat. Itzi has a silky coat and it wasn't difficult to keep up but Cruiser's coat was 3xs as thick and he was always bringing in the outside yard in his coat--I think Cruiser is more playful since we cut him down.
I think it is very difficult to find the right groomer--tell them on the first visit how to groom the feet and tip the ears--you want a groomer experienced on Yorkies--if they listen the first time and don't mess up the feet or ears, I would use them again.
It is also a case of the right grooming products. I like Plush Puppy and Vellus. |
