| Don't they have amazing lashes?!? Toto's are so long ... I was in a big hurry with her topknot, caught it too low on her face and got her lashes too! Didn't even notice it until I realized she looked more "wide-eyed" than usual!! Poor baby is soooo patient with me!!

| Yep! Definitely a "do over" ... it looks painful and I was mortified when I realized what I had done! It actually made me more mindful of the topknot and the little "ponytails" that I put at the rear to keep her little "skirt" from getting wet when she goes pee pee!

| Oh No leave them long, there was two things that I told the groomer to leave alone last week, one was the hair on Jack's ears, and the other was his eyelashes. I think they are so beautiful, it was one of the first things I notices when I picked Jack up at 8 weeks old.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | I love the butt shots also - That's a great idea if it's raining out also - I used to HAVE to give Chanel lots of butt baths... but since trimming her 'back there' I haven't had to in a long time - I would have never thought to do ponytails - |

| red98vett ... Sorry! Been out all afternoon taking advantage of the warm, sunny Colorado weather with the top down ... had lots of fun! The Toto had a great time! The little "tails" are fun and they keep me from having to wash that little butt so many times between baths! I keep her little butt area trimmed to about 1/8" with the scissors rather than clippers. The groomer shaved her there and her little "poopie" area and she scratched like crazy until it grew back some! Poor baby was miserable! This works really well! jackandjill & jesscruz ... I didn't mean that I would cut her eyelashes ... those are the least grooming problem I have! I have been considering a puppy cut for the summer and while she is trying to shed those pesky pounds.

| HI Toto's Mum, I understood what you said and didn't think you were cutting them. Your afternoon in a convertable sounded fabulous. Isn't it great that spring is here, and the babies can learn all these new things, like, what bugs are the most fun to chase, the different noises the birds make that perk up their ears, and their first sights of rabbits, deer, possums etc. We even have an armadilla in our area that Jack watches like a hawk in the morning, (while the little bugger is digging in my Hostas).I need to train him to chase him off, LOL, I know that they are originally bred for rat hunting, but an armadilla would be tough with his armor. Happy Spring
