It's something you can easily do yourself to get it they way you want it. I use a little Wahl mustache clipper to do the sanitary cut.
The groomer does a nice sanitary cut, Buster is always shorter, now I know why. Thanks for the tip about the mustache clipper as Maggie's hair grows much faster than Buster's and I have to do a trim on her before it's time to go back. Buster is also very skinny and I usually get him cut short but that only accentuates how skinny he is. She always cuts his beard too short and that makes his face look funny, maybe she won't today. Maybe if little by little I get the right kind of tools I will eventually groom them myself.

Wish me luck today!! (wish Buster and Maggie luck!)
