Grooming Yorkies even for show has nowhere near the scissoring and shaping required as compared to a BRT. I groom my Yorkie myself and my retired BRT. Dara was the first dog of mine I have ever dropped off at a groomers -- I am not too enamoured with that. The show groom for this learner took 4.5 hrs from wash to finish.
And for some folks it is necessary to take to a groomer; some don't have the confidence and or skill required, some folks might have a physical limitation etc etc. But I have to say it is really nice when they come to your home.
