When ever we have boo boo's the vet has me put neosporin on them. They have the spray kind now...It's great cuz you don't have to rub it on and cause more pain.
Poor baby!!!

Ohhhhhhhh poor baby

It looks like his ear was caught in clipper blades. Glad he is doing better.

If the cut is really bad, you may not want to go back. The only reason I said this because I too had use a groomer twice. First time, she shaved too close, not sure what happened but he was red on the skin for a few days and he was very uncomfortable. I thought to give her another chance coz she had been very nice but her skills are just not polished enough for a squirmy guy like mine. The next time, she knicked almost all 10 of his nails bleeding while I had to hold him so he was bleeding on to me and she had me hold him to begin with. That was the end of going to her for grooming.

Wow that's scary. I did see a couple of people picking up their pets. Also a couple dropping off so I felt pretty safe. The gentelman was very knowledgable about yorkies. But I did get a little turned off when he told me that sometimes they cut the little webbing between the toes and that bleeds alot

I probably won't bring them back there. Also my Trixie is getting spayed right now ....I' a mess ....I just called and they told me she is out of anesthesia and in recovery, but when I told him that she was getting spayed he tried to talk me out of it saying, "there was alot of money in yorkies" so I should rethink bringing her!!! I have no intention to breed my babies. I'm not a breeder. I don't know between yesterday with Coco, and right now with trixie being away from me. I'm freaking out.

I'm so terribly sorry you little boy got cut like that. I would have been LIVID!!! You took it much better than I would have. I don't know why they can't just use the clippers on the ears. I do because I wouldn't want to take the chance of cutting them.
