| How long does your Yorkie stay at the groomers? I took Jesse for his first grooming this morning. I took him to Petco, because it's right down the street from me, and in the very expensive area of LA where I live, it is one of the few reasonably priced groomers. I dropped him off at 10:30am, and they told me to pick him up at 1:30pm. Three hours! I didn't think that it would take more than one. I suppose maybe they have wait times because they are a larger chain with dogs coming and going more. Oh well, Jesse looks supercute with his new puppycut. Sarah |

| Hi, I have a very good groomer, He lets me drop off the babies early like 6am, that way they are the first to be cut and they are back home in about an hr, I really like it that way Would love to see pics of his new cut

| Rockies first grooming session was from 5:00p.m. to 7:25. He's a great mobile groomer. My niece just called me for his number earlier today shes having her two furbabies done again. I have to wait until the 25 of this month for Rockies 2nd grooming session. |

| My girls are dropped off around 9 am and are done anywhere between 1 and 3 pm. The groomer gals LOVE them, so I think they just give them extra special attention sometimes

| My groomer's keeps Max for several hours too. Usually if I take him in around 10 am, they want me to pick him up anywhere from 1:30-2:30 pm. I don't know how they work grooming them, but they always have quite a few dogs in there. I don't really like Max having to be there so long, but they do such a good job and they're so nice, that I figure it's just one of those things. Luckily for me, it's in a really nice area of town where there's lots of shopping and restaurants if I don't have anything else to do. I think sometimes if I take him in at 7 am, they have him done by around 9 or so, but I usually wind up getting a later appt.

| The groomers say i can dropped off Bella between 7 and 10...however the groomer gets there around 9. So i just go when it is good for me. It has been as little as an hour.. or as long as three. I dont always go when they call either. If i am running errands, I pick her up on the way home!! Works out good for both. |

| Bella is at her groomer for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, then they just give me a little courtesy call to let me know she is ready to be picked up.

| Ours is 90 minutes for one dog, 2 hours for both. They are always exact. They don't want the dogs to stay any longer than what is necessary. I am very lucky to have found my groomer.

| It can take anywhere from 1-4 hours depending on how much Gracie is having done and what the schedule of the shop is. The actual grooming doesn't take more than an hour. When she was a puppy the groomer would give her lots of breaks so she would not get stressed out. Sometimes she has to wait if someone else is on a tight time frame. I appreciate that they are flexible and work with people, as occasionally I am the one that needs to get her ASAP so I can make a meeting, dental appointment or some such thing!

| I take Deiter at 7:00 and then I pick him up at 5:00. He gets to play at puppy day care until they do him. She leaves Deiter for last because he love playing with all the dogs. Now Cozmo this Tue will be his first time. But he won't get to play because he is not fixed yet. That happens on Wed.

| Mine go together @ 9am and it takes until about 11:30. Usually i stay to chit chat while she does Loki and then to help hold Sammy. Sometimes I leave while she cuts Loki but come back to help with Sammy. She does one dog (or one family) at a time. We used to take Loki to a place that kept him for 5 hours and he would shake and freak out when we dropped him off. Now he runs up to the door to give our groomer a hug.
