Ya, that was just plain stupid if you ask me, I wouldn't go back there ever either. I LOVE my Furminator, but I use it on my Akita, Beagle and cats to get out the undercoat when they're shedding. It works great for that but DEFINATLY NOT for a Yorkie or any single coated breed.

I wouldn't worry though (other than maybe asking the groomer what the heck she was thinking), the hair will grow back
