Default Yorkie Puppy Haircut Disaster - Help!!

Hi Everyone - We are new parents to six month old Bentley - so this is my first post. We got him from another family who could no longer care for him. He is a good boy. Very playful and friendly and we are very happy to now be his family.

He had never been groomed before - but needed it pretty badly - so just after we took him to the vet for updated shots, we brought him to the groomer for his first haircut. I made several mistakes - first of which was not staying while he was groomed (I couldnt because of work)... second was not being very clear about what we wanted. Third was not bringing pictures of what we wanted.

Long story short, he used to have lots of wavy dark and light brown hair (everyone said he looked like an Ewok from star wars)... He was showing some silver underneath... and now he looks totally different!! Not even like our dog!

The groomer shaved him down and now he is pretty much all silver ... He looks like a little old man.

We are kicking ourselves for our mistake - but I am wondering if you all can share your thoughts on how his hair might grow back? Will it come back in dark or is he now going to be silver from now on? Will it be a little wavy if we let it get a bit long?

How long might it take for it to grow a bit longer so he starts to look like the puppy we brought home again?

Thank you in advance for your comments.
