Long coat???? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

donnarod · 10-18-2008, 03:31 PM

I love it but it takes so much time to bath, dry, brush, etc. Think I want a puppy cut.

Your fur ball is so cute.

We got Bella a puppy cut during the summer and she looked adorable. Left it a little longer on top of her head for a bow. Bathing, brushing and all around grooming was so easy. But i think it is getting too cold already in NJ. I think I will have to wait until spring.

awwww....she's a cutie !!

her hair is about as long as my Cheri's....

I know what you mean - it's alot of work isn't it ?? I normally don't use the dryer because Houston is so hot ...but with winter coming I will ...and no one will get cut till summer cause MOM stays cold all the time.

(I'm a weenie - it hit 55 this morning and I'm already cold)....and I hope Mike in Alaska doesn't see this...I'll never hear the end of it

Well, it was 60 here this morning. Almost froze going out to get the paper.
Tricksie would not let me get a pic of her whole body, sometimes she fights when I want to take one of her.

Cherylt8 · 10-19-2008, 10:29 AM

She is really beautiful... No haircut ... so stunning the way she is!

stedmansmommy · 10-19-2008, 12:35 PM

Girl, she is so beautiful! I can't tell you whether or not to cut her hair because even though I LOVE the long hair, it really IS a PITB to mess with

Tatum's hair has gotten sooo long (it is touching the ground now and has been for a while) and man does it take me forever to bathe and brush her

She has a beautiful silky coat but geez...it is just sooo time consuming to maintain. I want to cut her hair shorter just so it is easier for ME, but no matter how much I WANT to, I just can't make myself do it. I have taken out the scissors so many times and I always end up putting them back lol. I'm so afraid I'll end up regretting it. And knowing me I probably will.

IF (if, if, IF - BIG "IF" lol) I ever do it, it won't be during this time of year though. It would have to be done in the summer months, cause she would freeze

Ahhh what am I saying, I'll never cut that girls hair off

LOL!

I think my groomer loves the long coat more than I do, I just love looking at the pics of the puppy cut. They are so precious. With the long coat and getting an upset tummy???BATH, DRYING, COMBING???
I really want to take her back to the puppy cut. I think she looks better.

I can just see you getting the scissors out and can't do it.
Here a couple more pics of my angel.

donnarod · 10-20-2008, 11:51 AM

Sorry, only one pic.

jbenn73 · 10-20-2008, 12:00 PM

I'm sorta jealous, Carly's hair is still very short. Her sister's hair looks like your puppy, but my Carly hasn't got the long hair yet. Everyone that see's her thinks she's a Chorkie.

ARCHIE · 10-20-2008, 12:08 PM

Oh she's beautiful. I would really give it serious thought and be sure
you won't be sorry if you do cut it. It will take sometime to grow that
long again. Good luck in whatever choice you make.

scoobymom · 10-20-2008, 01:22 PM

Hey, Don't feel bad. I was trying to get my heater on this morning. At least I found out now it is broke. If it hits 50 here I might have to go further South.

I keep toying with the idea of a shorter cut..but I just can't bring myself to do it..my groomer seemed to think it would be a shame too..she told me to just 'keep doing what i'm doing'... Pixie's coat is truly beautiful I know..but in the wet weather here..it can be a nightmare!
