I took Teddy last Nov to get his 1st hair cut and he turned out just like U'res so now I do it myself! At least this way I know he'll get what I want him to! I trim mine for the summer too but I'm like U I don't like them to short. I mean neither one of mine don't have the long floor length coats...But I like them shorter but not skinned. Trust me it will grow out fast! I need to trim Teddy again and I just trimmed him a few months ago. I know it's hard when U take them to the groomer and tell them not to cut all their hair off but give them a puppy cut and U're expecting U're baby to be all cute and then U go to pick them up and they have all this hair on their heads and none on their body...It really is a big shock to us who is expecting another look.
