Tip the ears and even up her beard and mustache so that it's nice and neat. And in the summer I have Lisa shave her tummy/chest area for the added comfort in the heat.

Glad to see a thread on cuts but what I need is pics on bottom cuts as my babies fur is still growing (7 months old) but what do i do with his bottom as sometimes his poop gets a bit caught or like yesterday he had diarear (runs) and I had to wash him off twice, he would look funny with it shaved or should it be a certain lenght, not sure what to do not many behind pictures

Jackson just got shaved up for the summer, keep his tail and face long-ish though!
First pic is of his current cut.
Second is his cut in April, which is cute too.

My gang goes in tomorrow. I always dread it so much. My groomer will not cut their hair very short even if I ask her to. She doesn't like it. I think I will get them cut in a puppy cut on the body and legs and keep a little fluff on their face and tail. Last summer I took them to another groomer because Molly wouldn't cut them short enough. Well- I was soo sad, they looked terrible, so we wont do that again. I'll post pictures when we get home and I get over the trauma of the day (ha,ha)

I'll have to get a recent picture but we just went ahead and shaved Stormy's body short and left it longer on the legs/feet and head. I can't wait til I can do a topknot! lol

I think this is my favorite short cut. Adorable.

mimimomo · 07-01-2009, 10:07 PM

I left his face, legs & tail long...he looks like a yorkie lion.

I really love this look! I'm planning to do this look for Libbie always.

I took Ella to her first grooming session when she was 7 months old. I wasn't allowed to stay with her because they said if she saw me she may get excited and not stay still. As with Bachee, Ella doesn't like getting baths. Suprisingly the groomer said she was very good while getting cut. Ella is now 10 months old and going for her second grooming appointment on Tuesday at a new groomer. I am very anxious and as well nervous for her. Bachee will do well.

I definitely agree. This is an absolutely beautiful cut.

chewie123 · 08-22-2009, 12:45 PM

Perhaps our library could have pictures of yorkie's cut. I know of 3. First is the traditional with the skirt cut under the belly. The westie (or is it the schnauzer?) cut where you get a skirt but it's short on top of the back and then the shaved cut where all the body is shaved.

FidoTheYorkie · 08-22-2009, 02:56 PM

This is my Fido after his summercut

As you can see he has very thick fur, he is dirty on this pic (time to take a bath for him) and i had not brushed him all day, his legs are much puffed out when he's fresh from the bath and brushed

DerbyLayne · 11-28-2009, 02:18 PM

Derby has very fine wavy scraggly hair. No matter how often I comb/brush it.

I'm trying to find a good cut that suits him. It's really hard!

My husband prefers the area around his mouth to be really short, whereas I don't! and today I lost that battle. Luckily it's winter now so we can still grow out his hair, and the hair on the top of his head is still growing!

skellington · 11-28-2009, 06:51 PM

With Riot, I trim his beard, around his face, chest, tummy and legs short and leave the top of his head and back long. I don't know if there's a name for this cut or not.

I took him to the vet to have it done before, but I just got a trimmer the other day and groomed him myself! boyfriend says he looks just as good. I would never cut his long hair myself though, but for trimming him up I did al right
