A quick reference for pet parents

Teddy Bear Cut

Rounded face & fluffy body (1–2 inches). Soft, plush look like a stuffed animal. Popular for Maltipoos, Shih Tzus, Bichons.

Lamb Cut

Short body, longer legs. Gives a stylish, stocky “little lamb” look. Works well for curly-coated breeds.

Kennel / Summer Cut

Short clip all over (⅛–½ inch). Keeps dogs cool and low-maintenance. Great for active dogs or hot weather.

Lion Cut

Body shaved short, mane & tail left long. Dramatic, regal style. Popular with Pomeranians, Poodles, and even cats.

Asian Fusion (Japanese/Korean Style)

Big round eyes emphasized, fluffy legs, cartoon-like face. Very trendy and super cute. Best for small toy breeds.

Tidy Trim (Sanitary Trim)

Cleans up paws, eyes, and hygiene areas. Maintains neatness between full grooms. Suitable for all breeds.

Shave Down

Coat clipped very short. Used for severe matting or medical reasons. Safe for single-coated breeds, not double-coated.

Natural Trim / De-Shed Groom

Keeps natural length, thinned & brushed. Maintains insulation for Huskies, Shepherds, Retrievers. Reduces shedding without shaving.

✨ Tip for Pet Parents: Pick a style based on your dog’s coat type, your climate, and how much brushing you can keep up with. Regular grooming every 4–8 weeks keeps pups happy and healthy!
