The Yorkshire Terrier is a small but endearing breed dog. It is an animal that is loved from day one, especially if there are children at home. Enjoy caresses and games. Still, we have to know that their coat also needs care.
If you want to know how to cut the hair of a Yorkshire without going to a dog groomer, follow our advice.
What does it take to cut a Yorkshire's hair?
Before starting, it is important that you prepare everything you will need to cut your dog's hair:
- Dog shampoo and conditioner: essential to bathe it.
- Hairdryer: After the bath, you have to dry her hair.
- Brush: use one that adapts to the length of the hair and another to help you cut it.
- Scissors: they will be very useful to cut the ends well. Take some straight ones to cut the body hair and another small and curved one for the ears and the face.
- Electric razor: very comfortable and practical to cut your hair to the length you want.
- Glitter spray: It is not mandatory, but if you want your hair to shine like never before, you can use it.
How to cut the hair of a Yorkshire?
Very easy: following this step by step.
- The first thing you have to do is bathe it and dry it well with a hairdryer. Remember to bathe him once a month, always using a dog shampoo and conditioner.
- Then, cut the hair on the back with scissors, and then run the electric razor to make it even.
- Next, carefully clip the hair on its hind legs.
- Then continue on to the front legs, belly, chest, and neck. You can use the scissors for the most difficult areas, but we recommend the electric razor for the belly area.
- Finally, cut the hair from the ears and from the face with round-tipped scissors.
Now, it will only be left to brush it to remove the remains of hair that have remained, and of course give it a lot of pampering for its good behavior 🙂.
