It's hot right now. Professional pet groomers just can't get enough of the Asian influenced styles for pets. Japanese styled haircuts. Asian influenced. Call it what you like - the names are interchangeable. But the look is unique and extremely appealing to many pet owners.

In this lesson, Jennifer Hecker shows you how to start a Yorkshire Terrier into one of these fun trims. If the pet is coming off a shorter style, it takes time to get the coat to grow out. You will need an owner that is patient.

The key features of this trim style are the extremes. The body is clippered super short while other parts of the body are much longer. It's a fun style that is cute and easy to do. And - this little Yorkie will not look like all the other dogs in the neighborhood!

Approximate total running time:  27 minutes
