coat. Some pups are prone to thick coats other's not so much. I shave Buddy and love his look. Being a bigger boy he looks great. I leave the legs and head longer. He has a silky coat and really looks handsome with this cut. View his pictures and see if you like the look. He still looks like a Yorkie and it;s so easy to care for. Try is once if you don't see a difference let it grow back in. Good luck, | |

| i have always had them cut really short at about 6-7 months. It gets rid of the puppy fur that tends to tangle with the adult fur growing in. I have never regretted it and they are too cute with the short hair. It doesn't take long for the adult fur to grow out. I think it's a personal preference. It just made grooming a LOT more enjoyable for them.
