I'm a groomer and show yorkies too, I refuse to cut a dog down without working out the matts (even if the owner wants a cut down), those clippers running through the coat pulls too. |
i don't understand why you refuse to cut a dog down without working out the matts? because the clipper will pull the skin?
i always cut out milu's mats (with scissors) before taking her to the groomer. because otherwise they always try to comb it out and they pull on her hair so hard! they used to make milu yelp when they are combing out the mats, i always stop them and say i don't want them to comb it out, please cut it with scissors.
