| I took Sebastian at about 13 weeks (9 days ago) he got his ears & eyes cleaned, nails trimmed and they trimmed his underside, paws, face & butt area. They also tipped his ears. I did not get his coat cut. I got him groomed at Petsmart and it only cost $14.99 for the puppy package it also included a bath and when they were done they put a little blue bandana that said Petsmart on him. It also only took about 1 hour. |

| I groom my own dogs. I always think about taking them though, especially at paw trimming time. UGH. |

| If he's nappy you must mean matted? If he's matted, he might have cottony type hair and you might have them trim him down a bit to help with his grooming needs. He can go as soon as he's had all his shots which is about 16 weeks. Some groomers like puppies to start coming in at this age so they can start getting used to the grooming experience early in life. |

| I have had Hefner getting used to it since he was 4 months old, but my groomer comes to my home and does my poodle, my westie and my persian cat too, so she wasn't concerned about shots! |

| I havent take Gucci to the groomers yet, but will like too. I thinks taking him to the groomers if he has his shots up to date is ok. Good luck. |

| A religious opposition to the cutting of hair. We've NEVER taken Sully to be groomed. Our Christian denomination STRICTLY believes in no haircuts, and Sully is no exception. Just kidding. LOL. I do have long hair but it's just for fun. I am considering donating 10" of it to Locks of Love? (hmm, considering it seriously). We heard to get our dog's hair trimmed when it becomes hard to manage. Sully's hair IS getting long, but it's not hard to manage as long as we brush it every day, or, every other, something like that. And he looks so darn cute wiht his long shiny coat!

| I saw your website and your hair is gorgeous. My friend donated hair to locks of love. I think that is such a cool thing to do. I have short hair so I dont think I can.

| Passion - I donated almost 11 inches to Locks of Love in October. It was one of the best things I've ever done! I can't wait until I can do it again! Definitely do it, I remember seeing your pic and your hair is super long and pretty! But it will grow back, so no worries!
