I would be upset too. but it does grow back pretty fast. I always spend time with the groomer and go over exactly what I want done. She was a yorkie show breeder at one time and knows that I want the long coat. Maybe when you take him to another groomer you can justsay trim him up a bit as they see to take off more than you want most places. He is a doll

im sorry

, he still looks cute!

My Willow's hair is like this. In the spring and summer, i have her shaved even shorter, cuz it grows sooooooo fast. i really do think this is a puppy cut. i've attached some pics. i love it like this, cause she stays much cleaner.

Awwwww, I know how you feel - I felt the same way when Roxy got butchered at PetCo. But Niko is still Niko - as cute as he can be . Many of the YT folks have been there, and even with all of our stressing out over bad haircuts, their hair does grow back

Pipersmommy · 11-14-2007, 07:24 AM

Same thing happened to me before. I now have a groomer come to the house.
He is still adorable, but I would never go back.

Isn't the bigger the number blade the longer the hair that is left? That is the way it is in my hubby's army hair cuts... a 1 is bald...2 really short 3 good... 4 kicked out of the army...lol

If it is that way and she said she would use a 3.... and she used a 5... stay very far away.

My mom has a very hard time finding groomers doing puppy cuts for her maltese... one has a puppy cut the other a full coat... she finally took in a pic of a puppy cut.... w/ ears cut like a little girl's bob and they got it right. Try taking a pic next time.

Btw...we had to have Chloe shaved reallty close.... she got into sticktights in my neighbors yard and w/ her hair... there was no saving it... we saved a small...very small saddle and her head hair....lol... she looked like a lion for about 3 months!

Angelapk · 11-14-2007, 07:27 AM

Thanks everyone for the wonderful words!
I know it'll grow...and I'm hoping just quickly...LOL
No one made me feel bad...I did that on my own.

So please...no worries...there are no hard feelings here.
It really helped to put things in perspective.

opposite, the bigger the number the shorter. They use a 50 blade in vets for surgery. I use a 40 on my yorkies ears.

Crickettsmom · 11-14-2007, 07:33 AM

the shorter the hair. We usually use a 3 or a comb for the puppy cut, unless they are matted and cannot get the 3 through their hair. A 10 is used on the belly and for sanitary cuts. 30 is used for pads. Just thought that I would share this.
Your puppy is still one BEAUTIFUL little yorkie!!!!! I'm sorry you didn't get the cut that you wanted!

PKHenderson · 11-14-2007, 07:35 AM

He's a cutie, sorry about the bad experience. My husband did this once.. he thought he would surprise me, boy was it a surprise! Anyways, I sent those shirts out to you yesterday... the lady said they would get there by Friday! that's when it is supposed to get cold here again ( maybe there too since you are one state away?) they will help keep him warm!

remus · 11-14-2007, 07:37 AM

I think he looks very cute, hair will grow back, dont vry over it.

PKHenderson · 11-14-2007, 07:39 AM

the bigger the number the longer the hair ... wouldn't that be if you were talking about the guards not the blades?

Angelapk · 11-14-2007, 07:48 AM

So would a 5 be good for a puppy cut? or something else?

patty58 · 11-14-2007, 07:50 AM

That's exactly why Murfee gets haircuts by me. All I can say is that first picture would melt any bodys heart. Talk about cute.

PrincessTinker · 11-14-2007, 07:57 AM

I totally agree that the groomer should have given you a call

but at least it will grow back and he is so cute no matter what
