Short Hair? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

My Chloe is about 7 months old. Her hair is getting really hard to maintain. You blink and it's matted. I'm not sure whether it's cottony or silky. Almost seems like both.

Anyways.... I have read post in the pasts that say they cut off their puppies hair and a beautiful new coat grew in. Does anyone have any pictures of what that looks like? I don't mind keeping her hair shorter because she's a fussy dog that doesn't like to be bothered, but I'm scared of too short of hair. Plus I want her to look like my baby.

Please post pics.

Thanks

I just had my two groomed last week and am happy with their new cuts. Got the idea from another YTr's yorkies' pics. It's a schnauzer cut, short on their backs with the legs and face kept a little longer. I never thought I would like Lexie's hair shorter in length, but I was VERY pleased with this.....here they are; Lexie & Lucky

Ohhhhh Lexie and Lucky are so adorable and very inspirational! Do you know what the difference is between a schnauzer cut and a puppy cut?

my BIG girl Daisy has "bad hair",, lol,, like you say, ,cottony and silky at once,, after spending OVER 20 hours in one week on her alone,, and still she matted,, I got her a nice Puppy cut,, and her coat still isnt great, ,probably never will be,, but it IS much better now,, though i'm currently still keeping her in a puppy cut,, SO much easier and more comfortable for her,, as she is extremely hot natured anyway,, we love her puppy cut!!!
