I work at a grooming salon so I've never paid for Lacy to be groomed yet. I bathe her once a week myself and have her groomed about every 4 weeks. I just get her ears tipped, paws trimmed, pads trimmed, nails trimmed, and sanitary groom. I used to have one of the groomers do it but have done it myself the past two times (I've been getting them to teach me how to do it). Normally the place I work starts at 34.99 plus tax for a Yorkie (that includes a bath, cleaning out the ears, trimming the nails, expressing the anal glands, haircut, bows or bandana, and cologne)...it goes up if there are matts, teeth brushing, needs an extra person to help if they are hard to handle, or a custom cut such as a "westie" or "schnauzer" cut on a yorkie, mohawk, "poodle" feet or something not typical of a yorkie groom.
