I have checked around at a few places and everyone of the dogs there looked awful before they left. The thing is the clients were happy........makes me wonder what they looked like before. Also how do you explain, just a nice cleaning around the ears, face and butt but leave the hair alone? It has taken us forever to get his hair to start growing back out so we do not want his hair taken off just shaped up. His recent pictures are in my album so you can see what you think I need done. We also do not want any harsh chemicals on him, we use baby shampoo on him...will they also use this if we ask? Or am I asking too much from a groomer? |
A good groomer does not cage dry a yorkie. A cage dried yorkie WILL look terrible. There is just no reason for it. Yorkies do not have undercoat and dry really quickly. Just discuss this with the groomer before you leave the dog with them. Don't be afraid to ask questions or make requests.
