Dixie is off to the groomers for a shave. She is wrestling outside with Sasha and getting leaves and who knows what in her coat... and she is a tangled up mess!!!


I love her hair...but I think a puppy cut will do better till she gets a little older. Hopefully by the time it grows out things will go better.


I need some picture suggestions on a cut...I still want to be able to use a bow though.

Any help out there????:confused:

I love the look of long head hair and beard with about a 2 inch coat.

I am a topknot addict :)

I like the full hair on the face and the long ears, cut body and long tail. I am sure she will look adorable!!:D

So kinda like the look your dog has got going?

LoL I like to keep the head hair and ears long as they take forever and I mean forever to grow compared to the coat.

The same with the tail too ..... that also grows slowly.

I suggest finding a picture of a cut you like or a combination of pictures of different cuts and show them to your groomer that way it is easier to describe what you are wanting.

Don't forget to post before and after pictures :)

I am a long haired freak!

So I'm not giving any suggestions for whacking the hair off into any kind of cut!:mad:

Just kidding, your dog and your work in keeping it long but I am not kidding about being a long-haired freak! I even keep my hair long!

Oh I am sick for having to do it...but I spend most of the night combing tangles, pulling leaves out...EVERY NIGHT! I think she is too puppy for grown up hair:tongue4:

Rake the leaves! ROFL

I have a similar problem when the leaves fall from the trees so I truly have total empathy for you. The Elm tree leaves stick like super glue to their fur. But I love the long look and will continue to put up with the leaves. Actually, the kids bring a lot of leaves in with each potty and I deposit it them into a wastebasket I keep on the lanai..........so I have two of the cutest leaf picker uppers you have ever seen. Now that's looking on the positive side of the fur picking up leaves!! :tongue6:

Tangles and mats???? Well, I don't seem to have that to deal with if I brush "EVERY" day......which I do faithfully! Cuts back on time and effort and frustration for the grooming process.

Oh...it is bad...she rolls around with Sasha and the junk she is getting into is twisting around in he coat. I figured she would've cleaned the yard by now.:tongue5: Oh well...I love her anyways!!

I would like to have some pictures also of some cuts. I have an appointment tomorrow with my groomer just to get Bella groomed, she is only 7 months old and her top knot has not grown out yet, just 2 inches long. I was thinking about getting her a puppy cut for the summer but leave her ears, head and tail longer. What do you think???? Any suggestions anyone???

Thanks,

Good Luck,

Hey Girls,

It has been 3 days since Bella's puppy cut and I really think it is cute on her now, she looks a little fluffier and she seems really happy with it also and now I can feel her warm pink skin now when I hold her and hug her:hug:. Guess I am getting use to it. A girlfriend of mine told me that her maltese has already had her second cut cause it has grown so fast. Just wanted to share an update on Bella's new cut, I will try to post some pics of her as it grows out (if I can :confused:).

I know long hair isn't for everybody's life style and you have been very busy!!!! TOO BUSY!!!!

Carol, I know you luv all fluffs short or long hair no matter what. Your babies look beautiful with there long hair and if I had the time, I would probably grow my babies hair.

Yes you do know my life style, VERY VERY well, and understand 100% why having my babies cut short is practical for me and my family.

I have a thing for girl malts in full coat, I just think they are so pretty and beautiful. It must be a GIRL thing ( wink wink wink)

Well, Kallie has quite a loooong and luuuush topknot!!! First, the type of bands(latex) the dentist uses for baces are the best and can be bought from many websites. Below is the one I use. Secondly I use wraps from Sally Beauty Supply to wrap the hair BEFORE I put the bands on. And last but not least I do the topknot DAILY!!! Yes I know, DAILY??? But it helps keep the mats from forming in the topknot and tangles!!!! So there is a solution!!!
