Lots of groomers take the easy way out and shave dogs...less time on each dog means more time for more dogs = more money. Not too many groomers want to take the time to brush through tangles but tangles and mats can usually be brushed out if you shake a little corn starch on the matted area and brush with a pin brush. I don't use soft bristled brushed because they don't get all the way through the coat. My Biewer girls have a ton of hair and they're losing their puppy fuzz so that tends to tangle easily but I used the corn starch and pin brush and they came right out.
Lots of groomers call the cut you got a 'puppy' cut but if they shave them I think they just took the easy way out. To me a puppy cut should be fluffy and cute...not shaved to the skin. |
