Interesting Shih Tzu Cuts
|
A Shih Tzu dog's health is just as important as a cute haircut, probably more important, so you need to follow some basic grooming rules when planning the Shih Tzu cut. Keep the hair out of the eyes of your dog, as hair in the eyes is annoying for the dog and can cause infection. Keep the hair short in summer and long in winter to protect them from any unhealthy exposure to the elements of the season. The Internet is probably one of the best research tools in the world and you can use it to help with your Shih Tzu cut. You can search through sites hosted by regular Shih Tzu owners to see the ideas that are being used by owners just like yourself. You can also check out the sites of professional groomers and not only get ideas for your dog but maybe you can also find a professional to work on your dog. There is no computer software that will let you preview a Shih Tzu cut on your dog so make sure you take the time to really look pictures over before you start cutting your dog's hair. The hair on a Shih Tzu grows fast but they still have to live with a bad cut for a while so make sure of what you really want on your dog by planning it out somehow before you actually start putting scissors to your dog's hair. Your Shih Tzu dig's coat is a lot like the top of your head in that your dog's coat is made of hair and not fur. So you may want to consider blow-drying Shih Tzu cuts to prevent the hair from matting and getting clumped. Any kind of matting of the hair not only ruins the effect of the Shih Tzu cut but can also be unhealthy for the dog. Start at the back of the dog with low heat and move towards the front. Always brush your dog while you dry it. Everyone loves to save a couple of bucks by doing it himself or herself, but when it comes to your dog's cut you may want to consider a professional. A professional will not only get you the cut you want with no harm to your dog but they will also have some great ideas for you to consider, as you will still be able to decide on exactly what hair cut is perfect for your Shih Tzu dog.
