| Hate to do it..but.... Well, I really hate to do it but with the heat I don't think I have a choice. I'm going to get Bitsy shaved down again It's so hot down here, I just think she would be more comfortable. She doesn't look bad with it shaved, I just like her with her hair longer. What do ya'll think???

| I just looked at your album & if you're referring to cutting it like the first few pics I think she'll look adorable! I've grown fond of the long hair but usually keep it very short. It's so easy & still cute. I love how the hair on her face is, too.

| I think some hair helps keep them cool. We do naked tummies, from the chest to the privates, and 1/4 up the sides. Or you could shave the back from shoulders to rump, and leave a skirt all around... she'll still appear to have a full coat at a distance.

I thought about cutting her top knot off, but she has these great black tips at the end that I really don't want to cut. It's hard to see them in the photos, plus she hates having her hair put up

| I think she would be cute with any cut. I also looked at your album and it looks like you dress her a lot, in that case the shorter body hair is easier. It is hot here also, Miami, I keep remy's face and legs long and trim the body. I think she looks cute like that. I haven't cut her for the summer yet... thinking

| I just looked at your albums, Bitsy looks adorable with the shaved cut. I leave Zhoie's topknot, shave her back and leave face and legs long. Oh, and I leave some on her tail, she has a numb and it makes her look like she has a little tail, .

| I am faced with the same problem you have with the heat. My problem is that Sophie's hair is very thick, cottoney AND is now developing a distinct kink to each hair. She looks like a wooly mammoth when it gets any length on it. After having shaved pretty short a while back it is now in the stage of being basically a longish puppy cut and everybody thinks she is getting fat! She is NOT fat she is Fluffy!! She will be shaved down this weekend. |
