The groomer gave Maggie "model legs" one time, the hair was very short but the rest of her hair was long. She gets Buster's legs ok but when I ask for that on Maggie I don't get the same look. I have taken pictures of what I want but I don't really get that result. Neither of them have really long hair right now, I don't want to get it cut too short but I need to get it shorter for the summer. I take them tomorrow so any suggestions will be appreciated. |
It sounds like they have different coats or the groomer isn't good. This breed is simple to groom, simple to mess up grooming. Need to see what kind of coats you have to decide what cut is best.
Unless you're showing there's no reason for there to be any coat under there anywhere. There's a section of the dog that a good groomer should know to clear out for you. It won't change the looks of the dog b/c the coat will cover it on the outside. It will be easier to keep clean and free of tangles. Leg hair should be long if you are keeping them in coat.
