grooming style choices here's my dilemma. Madison is 8 mos old. I've had her since 5 mos. The breeder had never cut her hair. I Haven't either. I don't want her full length to the floor. as like show dogs. But I don't want puppy cut either. I like being able to do top knots and I like the feathering ( is that what you call it?) around the face and legs. Right now her torso hair is just about to her legs. I've searched and searched the internet for some pictures of different yorkies and they are either puppy cut short or full length. Is there any where either on this site or on the internet to see yorkie hairstyles/options. My father in law's yorkie is cut in a westie cut with the long 'mustache' not sure I like the shaved back... I just would like some input as to what options are out there. thanks.......;) |
Here's a link in YT: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...t-haircut.html it's all short cuts, maybe you can try searching at the bottom... |
thanks mimi I already checked out that thread. I guess as I read posts and look at members photos I may come acrossed what I have in my head and have one of those ahhh haaa moment :) |
haircut 4 Attachment(s) I get peanut shaved on his body and his face just trimed up a little. I love his cut, its easy and I still get to have him have hair on his face:D |
4 Attachment(s) I have Gracie Ruth cut in a long puppy cut and leave her top knot and ears long. I had them shorten the beard some as I thought it was making her look old. I leave the hair on her legs a little long also, as she is very petite and would look like a bad stick drawing otherwise. :eek: 1) Before 2 & #) After 4) Copy of picture I took with me to show to the groomer. Now G's hair is such that it wouldn't do what this dogs does on the legs, but it worked to show the groomer the length I was going for. |
1 Attachment(s) Here's Roxie with an E-comb. That was this past summer. I like it in the summer but in the winter a little longer. I always like her face and ears clean clipped in the yorkie style. I don't keep her long or too short. I like her skirt to hang below her tummy just a little. I keep thinking of growing her long but I always end up thinking she just looks so messy and get her groomed. My groomer says she has the perfect coat for it to be long because it doesn't tangle and matt. Keep trying a few things each time you go and soon you'll discover one that you like and works best for you. |
awww teresaM. Love your pictures and input. thanks! I said aww because we have that same sweater for Madison! I loved it so much I bought it in 2 sizes so as she grew we'd still have one that fits!!! ;) |
lovespandp peanut is just adorable! how old is he? I think what I am learning is how you can groom boy and girls alike if you so choose. I am going to try to get some pictures of madison so we can see what we are talking about...... thanks for the pics and input |
roxies mom what does e-comb mean? sorry for the dumb question but I'm new to yt. how old is roxie? she's a cutie. thanks for the advice. we have yorkie playdate daily with 6 yorkies and 5 of them stay in puppy cut and 1 is full length to the ground. I'd like to be somewhere in the middle right now Madisons hair hangs down to below her tummy on the sides and she doesn't get matted. we brush her in the morning. her 'mustache' gets crusty from eating and drinking and sniffing on the ground outside. thats the hardest for her right now is holding still to clean her face. she holds still for topknots and brushing but we are still working on her hold still for face washing and brushing. :aimeeyork |
1 Attachment(s) I tried to get a picture of her today that would give a general idea of how she looks at this moment. I'll keep trying ...... |
