If you are going to use a groomer, find one that grooms show dogs in general and yorkies in particular if possible. |
This sounds pretty simple, I'm going to start giving her little trim. The only thing I'm scared of doing myself is the ear trim - how do you do that? I have seen videos of people actually shaving inside of the ear and I definitely am scared to do that by myself.
I can definitely understand not trusting people with your babies. I feel that at the end of the day, a groomer sees someone else's baby as just a dog.. But to us it's our little fur baby. I can definitely see this with my vet.. When I bring Chloe I can never go by myself because I just can't bring myself to let go of her when she is on the vet table. The vet wants her to just roam on that table.. And I clearly know she will want to jump down if I let go.. So I just don't let go lol until I see the vet is holding her. So.. Bringing her to a groomer where I'm completely nowhere near holding her or protecting her.. Nooo way.
