puppy cuts

[Ponyup]

My Logan is in a constant puppy cut, but I get it done at the groomer. I was very worried about taking him to a groomer so I stayed the first time. The groomer had no problem with me staying her & I went to highschool together & spent the time catching up. Logan gets so excited when we tell him it's time to go see her. So I'm really no help, but I use 1" on my husband & it's a nice length.

Thanks Girls! I got a better response on WT then I did on YT!! LOL...matter of fact NOBODY responded on YT! Diana....do you have pics of your furbabies hair do? And Lindsey!! Layla looks ADORABLE! That is the length that I want Lillies at...I am going to attempt this some time today. I had both Lillie and Sadie spayed about 5 weeks ago and they both need baths really bad. Sadie doesn't have the same type of coat that Lillie has...I could go with never brushing Sadie and she would never matt....of course her coat isn't as pretty as Lillies either ((shhhhh....don't tell Sadie I said that!). I will post pics here when I have her done...and you can all be my critics...and I want you ALL to be honest!

Thanks Ladies!

No, I don't have any good pictures of Reuger with his haircut. He just doesn't cooperate when it comes to pictures. He looks a lot like the picture Lynn B put on of her dog except I trim the hair on his legs shorter and I trim the hair on the top of his head about the same length as I do the rest of him. He looks pretty butchered by the time I get done with him but it's a cut that lasts a long time. He ends up looking a lot like Alaska Yorkie's Eddie, except Reuger's smaller.

We always keep Rex and Rowdy in puppy cuts. Like Diana, our guys are always outdoors or we are traveling to the brambles and bushes with them in our travel trailer. Here's what they look like. The one of Rowdy in the harness is in our travel trailer and he has a SUPER short cut, since it is summer and hot and we are in the travel trailer.

I do shave some of my dogs all the way down in the summer, the ones that have no hope of having a decent coat, just makes less work for me. I do let it grow out during the winter to keep them alittle warmer but that 1st sign of spring it comes off.

Janet you have always done a wonderful job of trimming mine & your dogs. I just wish i could get mine to grow a top knot like your's do.

My girls have long hair, except I cut it short by their eyes and their bellies get trimmed when they're pregnant. I give Yankee a shorter cut, probably 1", but just use scissors.

I just had Eli cut a few weeks ago and i love it.
the 1st pic is Eli
the 2nd pic's is the pic i took to the groomer and showed her how i wanted it cut.
it's still long enough on the sides but not to long that it matts from the belly band and i didn't have any of his top knot cut. like i said i really like this cut on him.

He looks ADORABLE! I just got home. I didn't have the right size guide for my clippers. They are "human" hair clippers. My daughter is a hairdresser and had a 1 1/4 in guide. I am going to use this one...I hope I do this right! LOL!

I can't wait to see how you did. I really love Layla's cut Lindsey...she looks so soft and cuddly. Eli looks good too. Maybe I should have used a shaver instead of scissors or taken him to a real groomer. I can groom the long coats pretty good, but the shorter coats are hard for me.
