 groomer
I recommend grooming yourself. Not all groomers are bad, but the one I worked for was. I was just learning how to groom from this person in a well established shop. This person has top winning show dogs and is an AKC judge. A new puppy came to be groomed and was afraid of all the noise in the grooming shop. So, since the puppy would not sit still to be groomed, the groomer started hitting the puppy until it became limp and blood came out of its nose. The puppy passed out and the groomer thought the puppy was dead. The puppy just passed out, thankfully. He was easy to groom after that because he was comatose the rest of the day. The owners picked him up about 4 hours later. Unless you can see your dog being groomed, I wouldnt even take a chance leaving your Yorkie with a groomer. The grooming supplies are a little pricey up front, but in the long run, it is cheaper to buy them than it is to go to a groomer for the life of the puppy. Grooming Yorkies is not hard and you get to spend quality time with your pet.
