Default Grooming

Hi I am new and this is my first post. Yes, it is sad about these dogs and they should get daily or at the very least weekly grooming. However, I can also see that some folks don't know about grooming when they get a pet that needs extensive shaving and combing like many long hair or curly hair breed dogs.

Whether they buy from a breeder of any kind,(hobby,petstore,backyard....etc) those that sell the pets should inform the potential buyer about the grooming intensity and complexity of the animal they are interested in buying.

After the animal gets in that situation they may be too embarrased to take the animal to a professional groomer and too ignorant about how to use a clipper. Most clippers don't come with information that tells the user how exactly to get an animal used to them nor do they give example pictures of how to use them and how to style the animal. There are only a couple of books that I have seen on the market about hair styles for dogs and I have never seen one for Yorkies. I have bought many books on Yorkies and none of them give details on how to do crackers nor do they show how to give a Yorky clip of any kind.
