0 Jul 26,2025
First, cut off half of the hair under the eyes of the Maltese dog, and separate the hair on the nose from the middle to both sides. Cut off all the harder beards around the mouth. If it is a beard, it is recommended to trim it to 1/3 length, and the hair on the back can be combed vertically in the middle and combed down to both sides. Use a comb or scissors to trim 1 cm around the base of the tail. The tail hair should be separated left and right, and a small amount of oil can be applied to the base of the tail.
Then trim the entire sole of its foot into a round shape, especially the excess long hair between the toes. Be sure to cut it off. For dogs with a lot of body hair, you can lift the outer body hair with your hands and comb the inner hair with a comb. For dogs with less hair, let the inner hair hang down naturally and then use a comb to comb it up. When combing for laymen, you can comb from top to bottom three or four times, and never comb to the bottom. All in all, when combing the hair of a Maltese dog, you must comb it in several parts, and never comb it to the end.
When trimming the hem, let the dog stand on the trimming table, hold the comb in your left hand to press the long hair, fix one side of the comb on the trimming table, and then trim it, so that it can be trimmed into a beautiful hem. For the ligation of the head coat, please refer to the Shih Tzu ligation method.
