| He is beautiful! That's what I wanted to do with my Lola (she is 6 months today) but I took her to the groomer for the first time on Thursday and the lady cut it all out when I specifically told her not to. So I'll have another 8 months or so to grow it back out =/ lol |

| With these little guys I think we're always growing out something. My new grow out has been his tail. I used to keep it short but I just love seeing it swish when he walks. It was pretty long by December but he kept getting poop stuck on it when he had a moist BM. Deuce's BM's are affected by how stressed he gets . . . like when my grandson is at the house. Well anyway I just had to trim it a bit shorter. Hopefully this solves the problem. His hair is always a work in progress.

| What a handsome boy! I always keep the nose hair long, I find it's easier to maintain and looks nicer. Couver once had his nose hair cut by the groomer and it did take forever to grow out!

This is where Cesar is currently. In the picture he hasn't had a bath in over 2 weeks and I usually keep his eyes cut, but as I said I want to grow his hair out. What do I need to do to maintain it in the meantime while it grows? Should I take him to the groomer to have it trimmed periodically? What about paw hair maintenance? Sorry for hijacking your thread. I just want to be sure you see my post because your dog's look is what I want. Last edited by CesarTheGreat; 01-23-2014 at 05:18 PM. | |

| Here are some pictures of Lola's hair's progress, it was cut on 11/12/13, so around 11 weeks ago. Her hair is very silky and seems to grow fast. All those messy loose hairs by her eye/nose are short hairs, they're not from her topknot being messy (although it is a bit messy by her ears). I brushed her face right before taking the picture and she promptly rubbed her face on my bed. I'm also wondering, did the groomer clip all the way around her eyes? I circled the area I'm talking about in one of the pictures. I don't think she did but the hair seems to have gotten longer since she was groomed... I still want to smack the groomer... I told her so many times to only cut the border of her face plus wrote it down and she still messed up. She didn't even do it properly, part of Lola's eyebrow and eyelashes got cut too, no reason for scissors to be anywhere near that area. |

I specifically told her at least 5 times don't cut by her eyes or nose, only cut the border of her face and I wrote it down. How much more can I advocate? You were lucky, most groomers won't let you watch, I had a hard time trying to find a groomer who didn't want to keep my epileptic poodle for 6+ hours. I'm done with groomers, I'm not paying $70+ to have my dogs hair messed up and be treated like garbage. | |

| I guess I've been fortunate - I'm retired. The groomer I've used has been great. I told them I wanted to do it myself upfront. Let me me honest - they are so busy they're probably happy I don't come there. Most of the folks don't even consider hanging around since they have to work. I do bring Deuce in to get his nails clipped and ear hair plucked. 12 bucks and we're done - less than 5 minutes. Maybe a bit pricey but I can just walk in. They have to make money somewhere. They're good people. Mary

| Teddy broke off a lot of hair above his eyes, so I have been having a hard time with his topknot. Then we got tiny scrunchies from Jenny/Mimimomo toplinepet.com. The tiny scrunchies are perfect for putting closer to his eyes and getting those little wisps up. Then I put a second one farther back. (He hated when I tried this with the regular latex bands and ended up breaking more hair) This should help his hair grow back.
