| Mason was 5 months. I didn't get too much cut off. Just enough to let him get accustomed to grooming, especially those clippers. |

| Dinky was 4 months old. I took him too soon after we got him. He was scared. He's had 2 cuts since then,and things went better. |

| Rocco got a trim at 3months and last week at 4mos he got a short cut and looks so cute. He does behave nicely at the groomer. I cant get him to behave for me when i try to brush him, i have to bribe him with treats! |

| My new baby, Pebbles is 4 months. I'm thinking maybe I should start taking her to get her used to it just because she is super hyper and gives me a real hard time when I brush her hair. I'm not used to it since Yogi is super calm and does great with the grooming. She hates the brush and starts growling at it and trying to bite it as soon as she sees it. She'll even attack the brush when i'm combing Yogi's hair.

| Tab's getting... scraggly. I took her about a week after we got her just to get the hair in between the pads, her ears and a touch up around the face where hair was in her eyes and the eye-crusty area. So she was about... 16 weeks? I'm seriously thinking of taking her next week for a full do-up. I had to cut off a small mat near her elbow. And I do brush her, and touch her everywhere, and hold her snout like the groomer suggested. She has a whole different color and texture of hair coming in under that black puppy hair. Plus I want to get some length off her body so her new bunch of sweatshirts don't mat her up. |

| Zoe is 8 months going on 9 and I still have never taken her to the groomers. I trim her ears, rear end, and paws myself. But I dont want to cut all her cute black hairs off yet! She will be a totally lighter color once I finally do cut it. |

| 3 months. I did it myself. He's 4 1/2 months now and needs another trim. I've been debating taking him to the groomers or hold out until it gets warmer. |

| 5 months I had Deuce trimmed in a puppy cut at 5 months. I have been working on him for the past 7 months. It is a kind of therapy for me. He looks great. I am still working on his head and neck but most say he looks great. If you can do it yourself - enjoy it.

| Fancy is 2 yrs old and I have never cut her hair! I like the longer hair on the yorkies though.
