Takes a few tries...for confidence, but if you don't trust yourself to follow my lousy instructions (sorry it's hard to describe in words...) perhaps youtube it? OR ask your hairdresser...then do it on your dog. I did!

Hmm, I might have to try that sometime, thanks!

You live only about 40 minutes from me! You should come to Dog d'Alene on May 18th, I went to it last year and it was a blast! It's a whole event just for dogs, they have booths, raffles, contests, and the whole thing starts out with a run/walk through Coeur d'Alene's trails. I took Henri to it and he had fun, it was a way for him to be more social and he seemed to have enjoyed it

Thanks for the pic! Your furbaby is cute and I like the way the hair on his head is parted

Farleys · 01-26-2013, 01:30 PM

Yeah, I'm planning on going this year and maybe entering the costume contest

Alora · 01-29-2013, 09:32 PM

Well, the appointment is set for Saturday at 11:30! I think Henri knows what is coming, he runs every time I say "haircut" he is so funny

Aww, look at that cutie! I usually cut Henri's hair myself but I haven't had time lately, you do a pretty good job at it judging by the pic

Thanks for the pic!

When Jack goes to the groomers (twice a year) I have him cut in a puppy cut. Here is a picture from about a week after one of his cuts last spring.

I keep his hair longer on his head but he gets "bangs" and then he is shaved down everywhere else, except his tail.

I also agree with the OP - talk to the person who will be grooming your pup. I have been taking Jack to the same place for 2 years now and he had always been groomed by one specific groomer. She knew exactly what I wanted because she and I discussed it. This past time I took him in, the owner actually groomed him and ended up taking way too much off his ears (I tend to keep that hair longer too) and I was not happy - even though it is written on his card not to cut the hair on his ears.

I like to keep Henri in a puppy cut too, he has the hair type to do the long traditional yorkie hair but it would be too much work considering that he loves to get messy

I will definitely talk to the grooming to make sure she knows exactly what I want, thanks to the info on this site about how to find a groomer I think I found a good one

Thanks for the pic!

Tomorrow is the day! Thanks everyone for posting your lovely pics!

I have one last question before tomorrow, do you have your Yorkie's ears pointed or rounded?

maxsassy · 02-01-2013, 08:21 PM

When you get the puppy cut, what blade number should you tell them to use?

gontygirl · 02-02-2013, 04:24 AM

I finally sent off Boo for his first cut at the groomer and the square face and shaved ears really shocked me. He looked like a different dog. More like a West Highland terrier... His ears were shaved at the tip and shaped much like a bats ears...THANK GOODNESS IT will grow out!!!!! I'll be bringing pictures of how I'd like his face shaped next time. I had them round out his face a little before I left...couldn't leave with him looking like another breed lol! My groomer also mentioned something about how some people like their yorkies' face shaved...what does that even look like??? I also should tell you that he no longer has a mustache...which I feel he should have more of..not as much as he did before the cut..but still more. Ugh, I hate trail and error...but how else does one get the look they like without letting the groomer try a few times...

That is so cute! I have been think of cutting the topknot but she has long hair and I think it would look silly if she had short hair on the head and long hair every where else. Does your girl's hair stay out of her eyes with it cut like that?
