Just got her cut today! Wish I didn't have to do it, but I did. Roxie matts and tangles so easy due to her cotton coat. I have tried to let it grow out but the torture for the both of us is too much! I think of those who do such a great job like Villette with Chanel and I feel envious. Roxie is 1 1/2 years old and approx 6.5lbs and still pretty dark which is seems to be common in a cotton coated yorkie. Yes, her eyes flash orange/red in pictures when taken too. But I do love her so!
