| grooming issues when i first got chloe i played with his paws to get him used to people touching him. He is great with me putting in his top knot, but that is it. The groomers tell me that he is too hard for them to groom?? why don't they have two people. One to hold him and one to groom, or am I mistaken? I have him shaved like a Schnazer on top of his back, its just his legs that MAY have a mat. I really think he is in good shape when I bring him in. He doesn't like his nails cut. Chloe is 2. I have no children and he is not a hyper or a barker. I live in a condo where my furniture is white. This is not a street dog. He loves his baths which are given for fun every 2 weeks. She wants him once a month, i bring him every 7 weeks, is she looking to make money or do i have a problem with my dog. This is the 4 groomer. Please let me know your opinions. Thanking you in advance. Judie |

| Are you saying this is the fourth groomer? Have they all had the same problems with him? Based on what you wrote, I would be looking for another groomer, if she is the one having problems with him. She should have ways (positive ones, like using treats) to calm him and make it a fun experience for him. If he likes baths at home, I can't see how he is a huge problem at the groomer. Also, my groomer says 6-8 weeks, not once a month. Especially if you keep him in a shorter cut.

Senior Yorkie Talker | I'd expect the groomers to be professionals. Lexi moves alot but suprisingly they always manage to keep her still unlike myself. I just go to petsmart and they groom her.
