The IDEA of the cut is very cute, but I've seen pictures where a yorkie can look great with it, and ones where a yorkie can look, for lack of a better word...geeky.
We kept our first Yorkie in a Schnorkie cut for years...although we made a few modifications to suit us so the name was changed to the 'Boogie' cut. It's a long story but one of his many nicknames was Boogie. Anyway, it was easy to maintain and I think he looked adorable. We didn't keep the long eyebrows or the long hair around his mouth...instead we left a short eyebrow, it started at the end of one eye and went across to the end of the other eye and it was just long enough to curl under and look cute. For the hair around his mouth we had them cut it to about 1/2 or 3/4 inch long around his muzzle, they called it a donut. His back, neck, face, tail and head were cut very short, his belly was trimmed. He was only 5 pounds and 6" tall at the shoulder full grown so his skirt couldn't be very long, we kept it at about 2 or 3" and his legs were fluffy. Yes, he had one heck of a set of ears but he was the best boy any Yorkie Mom could ask for! His name was Little Man Tate but we called him Booger...because he was one! I hope these pictures show...
