I'm not one to doubt a professional or anything, but this was the first time I heard that. I was wondering if that was just for maybe her specific dog had some kind of eye issue, or if others have heard this before and there is something to it? Sorry if it's a dumb question, but I'm no vet, and I'm no groomer so I thought some of you more experienced Yorkie owners would have some inputs of value for me. Thanks!
If you are talking about the hair at the corner of their eyes, I do trim Zhoie's. I use the corner tip of my trimmers to keep the hair trimmed out each corner of her eyes. I tried not doing it when she was younger, but the hair would get in her eyes and they would watered so bad her entire face was soaked. I like it much better with the corners trimmed and it's drier for her too.
