There are some videos posted in a thread here in the grooming section. One of them shows how she does the ears.
When I take Gracie to the groomer I just have them even off the edges of her long coat. It can get pretty uneven and I find it very hard to get it just right myself. They also trim around her face to give her an even tidy look. The first couple of times I took her the lady did a great job. The third time I think she let her daughter do Gracie. He daughter is just starting out with grooming. I was just furious because she came home looking as though they did nothing but cut her top knot short. I had specifically told them I had been letting it grow out and not to touch it. My blood still boils when I think of it! I would never leave Gracie at a chain store. The place I used to go to was a private home. Her next appointment is at a very "exclusive" place that costs quite a bit more. I won't leave her any where that she has to be for more than an hour and a half. I don't want her sitting for hours in a cage waiting to be done or just sitting after she is done. It's very difficult for me to leave her with strangers. I get the same feeling as I did when I left my kids for their first day at daycare! |
