Thank you all for your kind, comforting comments!! Toto is fine with it ... it's me that's having to get used to it!!
Patrick was really funny when I finally got the nerve to tell him ... on the phone. I said, "I cut Toto's pigtail off" ... dead silence ... then a little squeaky voice ... "The
whole thing??"
I said "yes" and then burst into tears! He thinks he is gonna love it .... will be home this coming weekend and we will see! Nothing has really changed except that when she runs and plays, there's nothing to toss around on top of her head ... she was so prissy and cute. Heck, she's still prissy and cute and I just know she is much more comfortable ... that thing must have weighed a ton to her! It has only been trimmed on the end a few times in her entire life and I guesstimate it was still about 8" long. That's a lot for a little Yorkie that's an 8" x 8" square little box!!
