I had a long haired dog. It was a keeshound and the best dog I have ever had. I would take him to get groomed though because he didn't care for me to do it. The one thing I did find out with long haired dogs is to keep their hair short by their butt because it can cause them problems being able to go to the bathroom if the hair gets to long.

The chest hair deal happens on poms too if you let them get overly poofy. So I keep that area neat and trimmed too.....but you have to remember she's my little friend....while she has the conformation to BE a show dog, she isn't one. So if I trim her it's ok.
