That is pretty cheap but since I do it, it is FREE.
In all honesty, nobody from Petco or Petsmart grooming department is allowed to lay a finger on Ellie because of all the stories of dog abuse. I would consider a privately owned salon but prefer to do it myself because then I know she isn't being hurt, neglected, abused, unsupervised... There are just too many horror stories. I also don't like leaving her alone with people I don't know. Atleast her hair is strange. If she had standard Yorkie hair I would feel bad for chopping it.
