Hooooo il est trop mignon, ça donne envie de le caresser. Je ne lui couperais pas les poils sauf éventuellement ceux des oreilles.
Je ne sais pas faire cette technique, c'est un modèle particulier ou on peut obtenir ce résultat avec tous ?
Merci pour ces photos.

Hooooo it is too cute, it makes you want to stroke. I did not cut hair except possibly those ears.
I do not know how this technique is a particular model or one can achieve this with everyone?
Thank you for these photos.

No way. Leave it just that way. She will love it to death anyway. It will probably loose all its fur over time by being loved sew much.
Really Cute....

No, I really think all doggy trimming should be left to professional groomers, so they don't end up patchy. LOLOL!!!!

Sorry DeVon, I just couldn't resist. :-)))

Seriously though, I think it's gorgeous just the way it is. Hugs n roses, Me

I love it just as it is. I would only trim if it needs a little something after washings. Great job!!!

It's adorable fluffy like it is. She will love "petting" the puppy. After it is washed a few times then it may need a little trim but I would leave it as is for now.

I love it this way - you might trim around the inside of the eyes - but the rest is just cute as it is.

If you find that the eyes get covered up after a wash you could trim a little. But isn't that the way the dogs are?

That depends, does it make the shirt front(?) heavy, does it sag where the adorable applique is. If so, I would evenly trim some away. If you are asking just for appearances, I would say no. It is very cute!

No the shirt front it not heavy, I was thinking only of the look. That is what my DH said to leave it alone. Thanks DeVon
