Just be sure to keep the body trimmed up with clippers, or keep your groomer on standby every four to six weeks. Otherwise, your not-so-ferocious dog will have a low-maintenance cut that keeps them looking chic all year round.

Good Tools
Tools for clipping your dog’s hair and nails should be available at your nearest pet shop.

Just remember, your dog deserves the best.
