Again, thanks for all your nice words...Zoe is definitely reaping the benefits of being bald...lots of snuggling under the blanket! She shivers constantly...even with clothes on...I'm starting to wonder if it is becoming a habit so I will hold her wrapped in a blanket! (she is no dumb broad)
She still looks....how do I put it....horrible. But I love her all the same. Yes it will grow back but like others have said, that clearly is not the point. There was one matt that was closer to the skin, but could've been either worked out or cut. I took her to a groomer because I figured (wrong) that a groomer would be better suited to deal with it than me. Clearly this groomer didn't know his head from his ass when he decided to not only shave her body down, nick her hoo ha but also shave her nose when I told him not to. I don't know a courtesy call would have been nice..."Hey Ericka...I am going to shave your sweet girl down to the bone so that she will look like a chihuahua, oh and yeah..I don't really care that you want to leave her hair on her head alone..I am going to chop it all to hell and shave her nose too."
Its one thing for me to screw up a hair cut. But for someone claiming to be a "professional" to do it is ridiculous! I believe that EVERY groomer should have to go to a grooming school to learn about the different types of dogs and different types of cuts. They should be required to have a license...lord knows half of them charge as if they do have one!
hmm....I didn't realize I was so pissy until reading my reply. :hmm33: This subject as you can tell has become a real sore one for me.
