| Need help with this crazy facial hair Ok I am about ready to just cut it all off. I hate the way her hair on her cheeks (hangs down below her jar). She looks goofy I think. I took her to the groomer to day and she said she would look choppy if she cut it. WEEELLLLLLL she cut part of it and then left part of it. I don't know what to do. I am tempted to take some sissors and whack it and try to make it a little rounded or even just straight across. Someone help please. Post pictures of what you have done to your baby's face. I would like to keep her top know but the face part is driving me NUTS. Do you think it looks ok? It just doesn't look as cute as it did when she was a puppy. Looks like the cut the middle (under her chin) and now it has a big gap to the cheeks. I hope that makes sense.

| I trim my two up myself and believe me, I'm far from a professional groomer, but I would trim the sides up so it matches the short area under her chin and then it can all grow out together. If you're doing it yourself just trim a little at a time till it looks more rounded to you

| I see what you mean , if it was me I would just take the scissors and round off the slightly long sides . Trim them up a bit and make them a little more rounded. I'm always triming the dogs myself and if I goof it up a bit its not the end of the world ( thank god its hair and will grow LOL!) BUT ! shes pretty darn cute just the way she is! Eileen |

| She's a cutie and has such a nice coat but I see what you mean as well. I would also trim the sides. Start from the jaw line and follow the side of her jaw up to her ear. Just follow the line of the jaw. I just found out the actually make a scissor that is contour to make it easier to cut that area and the legs. I have to get it. Do alittle at a time until your comfortable with one side and then make the other side to match. Good luck and post pictures when your done. |

| Ok where here she is. I was really afraid to cut it, but I guess it is ok. It looks better than the points. She is a little choppy but it will grow back....I HOPE
