Well, it has now been going on four days and DH and I have yet to recover.
I took the boys in for their regular groom on Wednesday and this was the first time Miss Lisa was not there to greet us. Her husband, who helps her out sometimes, explained that she was expected back in a few minutes. Since he was familiar with my boys I felt safe to leave them with him, as Lisa knows how I want the boys clipped. However, I let him know that Neo and Connor was to have their coats taken down for summer, leaving Neo's leg feathers and mustache alone, but my BIG mistake was not being specific about Connor. I did NOT tell him to leave his head alone, but I being as Lisa knows this, I didn't think it was necessary.
Several hours later, he called (which was also unusual) to let me know the boys were ready. When I got there Lisa came in an gave me a "heads up" that there had been a "problem" with Connor. Imagine bringing in two beautiful, if shaggy, yorkies and leaving with a yorkie and a flat-ironed looking naked poodle!
Yes, the husband shaved Connor, including his face! The only hair with any length at all is on top of his head, and it is a hot mess, too!
Needless to say, I was not charged and Lisa was furious with hubby, but the damage is done. I'm just glad that Connor doesn't have an ego, or he would be walking around with a bag over his head. My DH was almost in tears he was SO mad, and now he won't let me do business with her anymore. It will take the rest of the year and then some for Connor to look anything like himself again.
One day I'll listen to my inner voice when it warns me to wait !!!
