For the rough 'n tough boys out there - YorkieTalk.com Forums

We have our rough 'n tough boy Cody and we're thinking of a medium-length shaggy haircut but I really don't know what to do around his face. So I'm curious, of the boys on here, do you keep yours in a topknot or shaggy bangs or as short as possible?

I answered "as short as possible" but really it's not because I couldn't stand all that hair in his eyes. It's because it's easier for me, I don't know how to do topnots.

Otis is kind of a man's man. I don't think his personality warrants a top knot. Plus, and probably more the case for short bangs.... mommy is LAZY!!! He stays in a short cut for summer and winter.

Buddy's face hair is cut in a v form under and around the inside of his eyes
with the face hair going down each side. Above his eyes it parts in the middle and cut shorter above the eye so it does not block his eyesight. Drives me
nuts when he can't see proberly.

Here's his current cut. I really like it

And, here he is a little scruffier (he's on the left)

Lately I have been putting bows in Reece's hair but I also just let it fall too...

I think Winston wore a bow...once...and only for a picture!!!
He looked so sad...ahhhhhh.

Sophie had a full length coat for 10 years with the topknot, and then went to a puppy cut. Did the topknot last very long? No, but I would put it back up and sometimes braid which was cute. Just loved all of the bows, clips and girlie things for her hair.

Charlie's coat is in a puppy cut, and can't imagine him with a bow. However, just for fun, I will put one on his head and take a picture. Sorry, won't be able to show you because he is my "manly-manly" man. First male dog and causes me a laugh when he is done going potty, digs into the grass, kicking sod in the air with a look on his face that is too funny.
