Viv I do all of Jada and Bogie's grooming.
In the winter I use a 4f or 5f blade and cut against the hair growth from tail to neck. I don't do anything to the legs except trim them a little when they get too long. The leg area is a lot longer now than it is in those pictures. In the warm months I use a 7f blade and also cut against the hair growth pattern. You get a much smoother look if you go against the growth. You can see the legs better in this picture of Bogie...and I love that it looks like he is in full coat with his clothes on You will have to post pics after the haircuts!!

THANK YOU!!!!!!! I'm so scared to do it, will prob take them to a groomer and have them shave them. I would be so scared to hurt them, I do bathe and trim them myself, but the trimmer freaks me out!!

Our two are always in a puppy cut. It keeps them young.

Maybe I can watch some youtube videos and figure it out. I don't really trust groomers and hate the fact my boys have to be in cages and I have to leave them there for hours. Can you please tell me which trimmer you have/use?

Thanks a million....I'm in love with that cut!!
