Personally, I do agree that her muzzle hair was cut too short for her face, giving her to look of an underbite/overbite (whatever you call it haha). But is it at all possible that you chopped on her so much that she was so uneven that all the groomer could do to even her up would have been to take her hair on her head that short. Her body, if you said the inch of length you wanted, the groomer shouldn't have screwed up. My point being, a lot of times we get people in who have hacked all over their dogs and the only hope of "trimming" them is to trim/cut it all to one length so that it grows out evenly, instead of growing unevenly and in turn looking 10 times worse. And most parents are too stubborn to admit they cut just a little too much and a little to not so great than they should have. I think, for a yorkie in a shorter cut, she looks great. With the exception of the hair on her muzzle. You just have to remember it is hair. And Yorkie hair grows FAST! Next time, just be SUPER clear in what you want. Just saying, "oh like a few inches off here, and I want her face to stay long but not oo short, ya know?" doesn't cut it with a groomer. To get EXACTLY what you want, you have to be SPECIFIC. And then there are groomers out there that just don't know what they're doing (*cough*PetSmart/PetCo*cough*). lol I can't WAIT 'til all groomers have to be licensed. I hope that helps you with your next grooming trip. And don't fret so much! She does look cute and it will grow back.
