I keep the hair on her chest, stomach and private area shaved. The hair on her legs is long and will continue to grow until all is long and even with a blunt cut at the paws.

People who see her always complement her cut. It probably sounds strange to read the description but it is very cute to see on her.

It took me a while to get comfortable with the tools but now I have mastered grooming and will NEVER pay for something I can do better and with my expected perfection.
I really like this style! I've been grooming both of mine myself and I have kept my boy in a very similar cut to yours. He just doesn't have a topknot. But I am now growing out my little girl's coat and then I'll shave her tummy. I've been growing her topknot. I hope you don't mind that I copy your signature cut!

I completely agree with you about not paying for something that you can do better yourself. I'm a perfectionist and I'll never pay for someone to groom them.
