I'm new to this forum. I've had my yorkie for about four months, she's still a puppy.

When I went to pick my dog up, the groomer told me I could go in the back and get her. I went out back, and couldn't find my dog. So I called the groomer over and asked where my dog was. "Right here." she says, and points to a dog that looks exactly like a chihuahua. I was in shock. She had shaved all of my dogs hair off. I think the groomer knew something was wrong, and told me puppies were free, but I couldn't walk out without paying her, even though my dog was botched, so I gave her 20$ and left.

So now, my dog seems to be horribly depressed. She's usually hyper and now she just seems to mope around the house. She won't play with our other dog, and just lays around all day. So my question is, how long on average does it usually take for yorkies to grow their hair? I've enclosed three pictures. The first two are when she was a puppy, about three months ago, and the last was taken today in her chihuahua state. As you can see, she took a good shaving. Any ideas on how long it will take for her to get some length on her hair again?

Thanks.

Im so sorry that happend to you. She is still quite the cutie even with short hair

I find that when I trim Chloe's hair (my yorkie) it seems to grow even faster so I would think her hair would grow back faster than you think. At least this happened in the summer and not the winter.
