The last time was really bad and no I didn't pay for any of their so called special services. I took that money and went and bough some good clippers, sicssors and what ever else I needed. Now each time it's time for a cut I can put those $ in the grooming fund and have anything I need. I am getting alot better to folks....but anyway
I would ask why did'nt you leave some hair to pull up and some aroung the ears to flow. They would answer, "guess so and so didn't get that message"
well tooot, I'll do it myself and save $45.00 x 4 let's see who can listen and pass a message next time.

I know some groomers are excellent but some are really the pitts and shouldn't be grooming in the first place.

Start out slow and look on the net and find tips and how to video's that will help alot then go for it.

Very good to see,that i'm not only the one who is thinking the same about groomers.

First of all,when a person is interested for this breed,for yorkies,would do it better first to buy some books,go to the kennelclub and speak with people who are haveing yorkies.

They can help a lot , save a lot of time,energy and money as well.

Good advices can come from breeders from where you bought the puppy.

At the start i did all those things,what i wrote before,now i'm able to give myself advices,when i'm asked.

If i can help,i'm doing with pleasure
