Yorkie's hair: Short or Long Which do you like for your dogs, long hair or short hair? I think I will choose short because they look much cuter on short and if it is long they may not feel comfortable while playing just like humans if they are in long gowns :teeth: What's your opinion? |
Penny is only 6 months old. We are letting her hair grow to about one inch off the grown. Her beard, lack of better word, we keep trimmed. Now we may not like the long look. We live in the country so the long hair may be short lived. I keep her combed each day, so far all goes well. |
I think it depends on the type of coat they have. My Jake and Maya both have curly coats and if they grow out they look like big powder puffs LOL. So I keep their hair short. Then Sky has a thick cotton coat so I keep his cut up to his body and Lily has a beautiful silky coat that I'm growing out. I must say I am partial to the long silky coat I think they look beautiful with their long flowing hair but it's a lot more work to groom.:D |
I love the long coats even though it is a lot of work. |
2 Attachment(s) Short! :) I just like Jackson to look neat... and when his hair grows longer, he just starts to look shaggy and scraggly. I think it all depends on their coat. Some Yorkie's can pull off the long hair and look beautiful but in general... I prefer short. Plus, we're outside pretty much every day in the warmer months so it's less maintenance for us and he is always so happy after he gets his hair cut! This is how I like him the best... and it works for us. :D |
Derby's hair is thin, and cotton/wiry-like if that makes sense? It's got a bit of wave to it, and every time we try to grow it he gets burrs in his coat from running around the park like a crazy-guy and we have to cut it short again. We've now opted to keep it short, but man am I ever dying to have it a bit longer. I've given up on growing his hair out, but I'm now trying to grow his face hair to see if I can get that nice Yorkie face. We do it ourselves, so it's very hard... and it never looks -just- right. Practice will make perfect though! We don't have the money for dog-grooming. |
We keep Gypsy's short. We are terrible at doing it ourselves. She never holds still for us. The funny thing is she keeps lots of compliments on how good she does at the groomers. |
I keep Owen's hair pretty short.. but not to his body.. It's long enough where you can put your fingers through it a little bit. He has a pretty curly coat. I think it depends on the dog's coat like jnsasha said! :) |
Ive tried growing Tuckers out and it "grow's up" not down..lol. So I keep it short. I like 'em clean and neat..I agree with Brister, it starts to look scraggly when it gets a certian length. I give lots a credit to those that can grow it long. :) |

I keep the pups hair long in the winter, and cut short in the summer. It is just too hot in the summer for them to enjoy their walks with long hair. |
I have to say...I like it long. That's one of the many reasons I like Yorkies and their gorgeous mixes... :) If I didn't, I'd go for one of the short-coated breeds. |
on my girl I like it longer but my lad I like shorter.:p |

We are trying to grow Jack's hair out. He is almost 10 months old now and we have not cut it yet (other than his foo-man-chu otherwise known as his beard). His coat is getting longer and it really lays beautifully. I think its funny though since its so long on his head, we will pull his bangs up in a clip (usually brown, black or clear) to keep the hair out of his eyes and everyone thinks he's a girl. :cool: |
