LOL! Sorry) he said it took him 3 hours to cut her down & she just turned 9 months old and our babies has good thick coats and her's was silk. See I have to wonder how much weight our Yorkies really weigh when their coats are cut down...I mean isn't part of their weights coat too??? When he called me to tell me Fri. night the 1st thing he said was I traded Bonnie to a Chihuahua I said U did what. He was laughin and said he had cut Bonnie down and she looked like a Chihuahua with her ears. LOL U know how their ears look bigger when U cut them down. I said I bet she does. He said she was flying through the house running herself to death. He said she thinks she's a new dog now. Just something for U all to think about and if anyone has any thoughts on the weights and their coats please post. Hugs

hair really doesn't weigh much at all. I can't remember details but I've read stories of dogs being shaved and all their hair being weighed and it wasn't much at all.
