I went to run some errands and when I came back the front of chloes top knot had been WHACKED OFF. I was extremely upset (still am). The hair on top of her head is almost four inches and now the front is only an inch . I asked the lady what she did and why she cut her hair and she said "it's called a visor it's part of the yorkie cut.". I did not ask her to cut my dogs hair.

Does anyone know how long it will take for it to grow back out? 3 inches!!
I am sorry for your bad experience with Petsmart.....I have had several experiences with both Petsmart and Petco groomers that ended in too short haircuts! I even gave up taking my pups in to just have their nails cut because they charge $8 and often times struggeled to get the nails cut.

Just a little hint if you ever get into stickers again......if you take some baby powder and run it into the area with the stickers, they will brush out easlily with very little loss of hair. (I had to do this just the other night with my newest show pup that found the one and only sticker patch in our backyard and rolled in it....lucklily I got all of them out with no hair loss due to the baby powder trick.)
