The Japanese cut is broad term for short body hair with extra-long ears and very hairy legs. This style is in typical Japanese extravagance with extra attitude. Their legs can be styled what ever your dog’s desire. This look is especially kawaii with fluffed circular legs. Go for flared bottom style if your Shih Tzu is looking for extra pizzazz.

This is the happy medium between two extremes. The coat is not so long that it reaches the ground. Yet it is not too short, so it has volume and can be styled in the manner you require, but it is short enough to keep maintenance at a manageable level.
