Summer cut question?? HELP

[rrosenberry]

Bailey is 1 and he is getting groomed Sat. my question is,,,, Is the puppy cut shaved or just cut short on the back... He still has alot of black on his back and I can see the silver under..so i know it will look alot different to cut all the black...
But do they shave it all short or just cut it close,, and do they leave the fur on the legs longer.. Or are they all different?

I wanna keep his face long, but trimmed, but he is so hot so I dont know about the back what to ask for??

Just tell the groomer exactly what you want and make sure they understand you. I think the puppycut can depend on where you are. We have Yoda shaved down from his neck back, but we left his face with a lot of hair, and his paws/legs have longer hair too, so the legs sort of look like boots.

In the summer, we keep Yoda shaved down and in the fall/winter, we let it grow out more.

I've seen the puppy cut also referred to as the Westie cut.

You could find a picture of exactly what you want and take it with you.

We just got Chachi and Jewels puppy cuts. They left the face a little long just evened it out. The body was shorter and the legs had a little length. They both look like teddy bears.

Cooler and EASY to groom ! I'm thinking of cutting my Chanel who has long hair ....she's wearing more leaves than the trees some days.

Good luck - whatever your baby looks like - it WILL be cute and it WILL grow back !

Bella just got a "puppy cut" for the summer and I love it and I can tell she really likes it too. Its just easier on them for the summer, especially since she is such a active dog. Here is a picture of us from Sunday in our hotel room in San Diego.

There are soo many cuts for yorkies. There is a breeder that owns a boutique/grooming salon a little ways from me and she showed me her pet girls cut. She had SHAVED all the blue off and kept all the blond long.including all her facial furnishings.
I think this is a great cut if you keep your dog in clothes like she did. it looked like the little girl was in long flowing coat. I thought it was ingenious.I honestly considered that cut for mine that I want to look like they have the long yorkie hair but don't want the tangles when they wear tshirts and sweaters.
It sounds horrible but it looked PERFECT!!

I think their bodies were shaved but Chachis still has a little length to it. It still parts.

I've got an appointment for Kacee July 13th (I think that's right) and I'm going to have her done in a puppy cut. That's the way I did Muffin's for most of her life. She hated her hair long and she was very hot-blooded. I did Muffin's myself, but she was calm. After Kacee calms down a bit, I'll probably do her myself, too.

[Bella Bear]

I'm glad you like the cut! Here is another picture of Bella, might be a better one to bring because its a closer picture. I know you will like the cut and so will your little one.

Jewels cut looks exactly like Bellas. On Chachi she left everything a little longer. They both looked good.

Maggie got groomed last Friday. She got a puppy cut. It's about an inch and a half all over. The groomer used scissors on the face, legs and pads of the feet. Her lower belly (underneath) was shaved close, but not the chest. Her ears were trimmed on the top third. Hair was plucked from the ear canal. She looks great. All I asked for is a Puppy Cut. I talked with Mag's breeder, so that I would ask the correct questions. I also put my desires in writing, and gave it to the groomer. This way, if you want something cut or not cut, it's in writing.
