What haircut for a silky yorkie?

[Trevstan]

Hi, I have booked Bobbie in for a full groom next Thursday and deciding on his haircut.

He has fine silky hair I fancy it getting cut short as it will be more manageable but not sure on what to ask for or how short to go as I want him to look right.

I had a look at a puppy cut but is his hair to fine for it?

Any advice/pics would be helpful.

I really love his hair as is in the pic. He looks great!

Well the groomer came to my house today she does the work in the van (bathing, drying etc...) She asked how we wanted him cut we decided on 1 inch on the body and a puppy cut face and the legs blended in.

Overall were happy with his cut and he was a good boy for the groomer apart from him showing his teeth a few times she said he does that to us sometimes too ... Still getting used to hair on top of his head as it was 4 inches long before it was cut.

Was a bit wary with him having a silky coat but I think it makes him look younger, and he smells fantastic (that won't last long !)

He's fast asleep atm must a took it outta him.

From the photo in the first post he looks totally different.

What do you guys think?

I think he looks adorable! I love Yorkies with short hair. I keep Penny's hair about an inch long on her body all the time. It is so much easier to brush and bathe her.

With a dog as beautiful as Bobbie, I don't think there is a wrong cut! I see what you mean as to him looking a bit more puppy-ish with shorter cut. I just think he's one great-looking boy--long, short or in between!
