I provide trimming services for wire-haired dogs. This is the plucking by hand or with the help of special tools of old hairs from an animal's fur, which are easily separated from its skin. Trimming is needed to: stimulate blood circulation;
Spitz coat care
The Spitz has a thick undercoat through which guard hairs grow. The fur should be thoroughly combed once a week, using a comb with sparse long teeth. You cannot use a slicker, it thins out the fur. Only if the fluff is very tangled can you carefully walk through the tangles.
A Spitz is usually trimmed once every six months. Show dogs are not trimmed at all, only the fur at the edges is given the correct shape. For pet keeping, a hair length of about 3 cm is recommended. It should not be cut shorter, since the structure of the undercoat is disrupted. Long enough hair is easier to care for. But in the summer heat, you can shorten the fur to 1.5-2 cm. There is no need to trim it anymore, because the opposite effect is observed - a naked dog overheats in the sun. Natural fur protects from both cold and excess heat. And the long awn protects the undercoat from contamination. You should not ensure that the ends of hair of different types are at the same level. Otherwise, the dog will have to be washed more often, and there will be a lot of small hair in the apartment that is difficult to remove.
There is a misconception that after a very short haircut, a Spitz's fur will no longer grow back. In reality, it grows to the same length, with the same density and color. But there is pathological baldness, which is genetically determined. Such dogs do not produce offspring, and they never have to be cut.
They begin to trim the Spitz when the puppy fluff is replaced by adult hair. This occurs at approximately 3 months of age. Later, the owners themselves see that the fur has grown too long, and it’s time to shorten it.
How to cut your Yorkshire Terrier's hair at home
Many owners want to groom their dog themselves. It is quite possible to get a haircut at home. It is important to properly prepare the tools and tune in to the process by studying the step-by-step instructions.
What tools and equipment will be required?
To create a beautiful hairstyle for a dog, you will need the following tools:
- A table with a rubberized mat to prevent the dog from slipping.
- Scissors of different types - straight, rounded, long, medium length, small with rounded tips.
- A special machine for dogs, devices for people are not suitable.
- Nozzles for the machine.
- A trimmer is used to trim delicate areas.
- Various combs.
- Nail cutter and webbing cutter.
- The slicker is designed for combing out tangles.
How to properly trim a Yorkie's head
When trimming the head, be careful not to damage anything or scare the dog, and to adhere to the necessary technique. Processing is carried out as follows:
- The hair is collected in a ponytail on the top of the head. If it is not needed, then use a machine with a 6 mm attachment to shave the hairs on the forehead, between the ears and between the eyes.
- The bottom edge is made in the shape of an oval and trimmed with scissors.
- To get the perfect hairstyle, use small scissors with rounded ends to carefully trim the hair near the eyes and on the bridge of the nose.
- The ears are first trimmed along the edge, then the coat is combed and cut according to hair growth using a clipper, resulting in a diamond shape.
Attention! In puppies, they try to shorten the hair in the ears as much as possible so that they stand up normally.
How to trim paws
Paws are easy to trim. First of all, the hair between the toes is removed, then all the limbs are gradually processed, if necessary, bending them in a natural direction - the front to the stomach, the back back.
After this, carefully trim the dog’s claws using a special tool. It is important to do everything carefully so as not to touch the blood vessels.

Is it necessary to bathe a cut dog?
After finishing the grooming, it is recommended to bathe the dog again to remove any stuck hairs. However, it is not recommended for your Yorkie to have water treatments more than once a week. Otherwise, the wool will lose the necessary qualities and become brittle and dry.
How to accustom an animal to a haircut
Many owners are interested in how to accustom their pet to such procedures, because they will have to do their hair quite often. It is best to start training your dog from puppyhood, then, as he matures, he will not be afraid of the procedure and will not interfere.
The dog can be rewarded with some goodies before and after the haircut. They begin to train with simple combing, gradually moving on to trimming with scissors. Soon the pet will get used to it and will be calm about such procedures.
The Yorkie's haircut is performed at the owner's request. There is a hygienic hairstyle that is necessary for any dog. It is important to accustom your baby to such a procedure in time. If you wish, you can do the haircut at home yourself, but before doing so you should learn from a professional.
Long claws prevent the Yorkie from stepping on its paws painlessly. This leads to difficulty in the mobility of the joints of the dog’s limbs. Therefore, trimming your Yorkie's nails is necessary. Otherwise, the claws may bend and grow into the pads of the paws, which will lead to excruciating pain for your Yorkie while moving. Often this causes inflammation and suppuration. You can trim your Yorkie's nails at the clinic or at home.
Should I cut my hair at home or at the hairdresser?
To prepare your dog for an exhibition, it is better to entrust it to a professional groomer. The hairdresser will trim the hair perfectly for public display. Also, owners who do not know how, or have not yet learned how to care for their pets, turn to professionals.
I must admit that cutting a Pomeranian is quite difficult. Hard spine can only be done well with experience and quality tools. The magnificent “collar” and fluffy tail require special effort. But if desired, owners learn how to tidy up their pets’ fur on their own. Cutting your hair once every 6 months is not too burdensome.
The cost of grooming a Pomeranian varies depending on where the groomer works. Calling a specialist to your home is more expensive than the same service in a salon. On average, in Moscow you will have to pay 900-1500 rubles.
Hygienic and standard haircut
There are three types of Yorkshire Terrier haircut:
- hygienic, which includes procedures to “make life easier” for the dog;
- standard, which is usually used for dogs whose hair is grown for exhibitions;
- model.
A hygienic haircut for a Yorkie is carried out approximately once every 2 weeks. It can be called a haircut rather arbitrarily - the procedure boils down to thoroughly combing the fur, untangling or removing tangles, trimming the hair throughout the body, cutting off excess hair on the ears, paws, beard and bangs of the Yorkie. In the summer, hygiene allows for hair removal shorter, “under the machine.”
A standard haircut involves performing the same procedures as for a hygienic haircut. Some experts classify hygienic as standard, while others classify it as a separate category. The instructions are simple: bathe the dog, dry it, and then trim the hair on the ears, paws, beard and bangs. Hair is trimmed on 1/3 of the tip of the ear, in the armpits, groin, in the genital area, between the fingers. The rest - the body and head - is carefully combed and trimmed without shortening the length.
This regular procedure is suitable for dogs whose owners are destined for a show career. A standard haircut is often called a classic haircut.
Haircut methods
First, the main tracts of hair on the body are cut off. Carefully trim the fur. The front legs are cut to the knee, the hind legs to the hock. The ponytail can be cut at your discretion, but the general rule is that the hair at the back should be at least as long as on the head.
When it's hot outside, the Spitz is often cut like a teddy bear. They leave only one and a half to two centimeters of fur. The pet looks like a funny baby. With short fur it is easier for him to withstand the heat. But you can’t shave your dog almost completely. This can cause permanent damage to hair growth.
Particular care is taken when cutting hairs in sensitive areas with blunt-tipped scissors. Near natural holes, on the fingers, on the tips of the ears. Carefully cut off the fur, completely exposing these areas.
Spitz dogs usually tolerate clipping well. The friendly nature of dogs helps build a better relationship with the groomer. When a stranger gives a haircut, the pet may be worried at first, but then he gets used to it. It's even easier for owners to care for their dog. It is advisable to choose a time when no one is in a hurry, the Spitz is full and happy, but does not want to sleep. They exclude unnecessary external irritants: the appearance of other dogs, extraneous sounds and interesting smells from the kitchen. In a familiar environment, it is easier to sit your pet down so that he can calmly endure the procedures.
Tools
If you decide to care for your Yorkie yourself, you should acquire the necessary tools for this. It is best to choose high-quality professional models, because you will have to use them quite often. Some items can be purchased at a regular hair salon, but most are special equipment designed for dogs.
To care for your paws at home you will need:
- Workplace. It is best if it is a table that can be placed in a well-lit room. Check in advance whether it will be comfortable for you to spend a long time with it, whether the height suits you, and whether your eyes are tired from the lighting. A rubberized mat will also come in handy; it will perform two important functions at once: it will collect all the cut hairs so that they can be easily removed after the procedure is completed, and it will not allow the paws to move apart, keeping the dog in one position. Before you start, be sure to make sure that it does not slip on the table surface.
- Machine with a set of attachments . The human apparatus is not suitable here both in size and in the specification of the attachments. Dog fur and human hair are very different in texture, so use special equipment with steel attachments to ensure it lasts longer.
- Set of 2 scissors. Some are small, with curved ends, similar to manicure ones. And the second ones are larger, classic hairdressing scissors with long straight ends. The former will be useful when processing the paw pads, and the latter when shaping the main length.
- Small nail clipper.
- A nail file or manicure machine for finishing the nail.
It is very important to choose the correct sizes of tools suitable for the dog’s breed, otherwise it will not be possible to perform quality grooming.
