I see your in NJ. Instead of a drastic puppy cut, which is nice in the summer,
why not get her just trimmed. Legs, around the face and butt area. The
weather will be changing shortly and her hair will keep her warmer in the
cold. This way you will be happy with the neatness of the trim and your
baby will not loose her pretty coat.
P.S. Is the vinyland skating rink still there? I use to spend my
weekends there many moons ago!
