It's probably my fault that she didn't cut hardly any off as I emphasized that I was trying to grow them out. I also said please do not cut their topknots or the hair by their eyes. I guess I didn't communicate very well.

I think I will start trimming them myself. I always shave my long hair chihuahua down in the spring and have gotten pretty good at that. It's just shaving the ears that make me really nervous. Maybe I need to get smaller clippers for them.
well...it's always a learning experience with any groomer - I would have said something nicely - then proceed to learn how myself lol - the WAHL trimmer and the pictures i have below are all I use - I swear the wahl trimmer is THE perfect tool for grooming yourself....

I use the skinny black one for under the eyes just to get the stray hairs and I also use a personal trimmer for the same reason - but the wahl is the one you would really need most - WALGREENS has them for under 10 $

and don't forget ...always shave in the direction of the hair and never against the edge of the ear - it can gouge their ears - just shave against the FLAT part in an upward motion - swipe swipe you're done !
