That seems awfully high for such a small dog, but I guess it's all about location,location, location lol. When I lived in a small town in Texas, they charged me about $30 for my cocker and $45 for my large shepherd mix. I moved back to Georgia just last summer, and was surprised to be charged a little over $100 for both dogs to be done. This is a slightly bigger area than the town in Texas, but I still consider it a fairly small town. I have no idea how much they would charge for a yorkie here. In Texas, they told me they charge according to size, so the bigger the dog, the more I would pay. At first it made sense because I know I hate to bathe my big dog because she takes up the entire tub and it's difficult for me to bathe her, (hard to reach places lol), however, when it comes down to a hair cut, she is the fastest, not much to be done to her, whereas I always had a "cocker" cut for the other dog and even though she's much smaller, requires more time and effort to cut her this way. I'm guessing it also depends on how much competition there is in your area. |
