I don't blame you for being upset, I think some of the readers of this thread have to realize the OP was very emotional when she wrote this, and please try to be not so judgmental of the way she phrased things. If she's made to feel like she has to explain every comment and even the title of the thread, she's not going to feel like we're a very understanding bunch. Anyway, I feel for you, but I agree with the others, even a bad haircut cannot hide Dolces' beauty.

She was upset and obviously was ranting about the hair length, & knowing nothing about the Chihuaha breed, mentioned price. I love Chihuaha's & didn't find the post offensive at all. I took it with a grain of salt, understanding that she was upset, and I still picture them with short hair, even though there are long haired varieties out there. She could very easily have substituted another short-haired breed, & someone else would have found it "offensive"

It was obvious that she was upset, & picked a short-haired breed off the top of her mind to complain about.

I am a groomer and I find your post title highly offensive. I'm sorry your yorkie got the wrong haircut but that is no reason to make such statements. There are quite a few groomers on this forum and we take pride in our work. The groomer admitted she made a mistake and you got your money back. Yes it was wrong of her to do what she did but it is hair and it will grow back. Your dog was not harmed in any way. Also, I just wanted to point out that your instructions to her, besides don't touch his top knot, were very unclear.

you said "I get there and I specifically stated, can u trim his body so that his fur is even, and she said oh ok, do u sandbox face robe trimmed in Teddy bear, I said sure, whatever u do, donor touch his top notch, he had a bow in his hair." (the blue text i can only imagine was supposed to mean do you want his face trimmed like a teddy bear. I could be wrong but i have no other idea what you could possibly mean.)

Trim his fur even does not give the groomer any idea as to what length you want left on or taken off. You wanted a top knot but also said sure to a teddy bear cut. The groomer should have asked you more questions but you should have been more specific. You are both at fault.

Also it sounds like you took her to a petsmart or petco. is this correct?

i don't know what dAmb means either but either way it is written in a negative way about Chihuahuas which is rude. many members here have Chihuahuas as well and they are worth just as much as your yorkie is to you.

I'm glad Dolce seems to be enjoying his new 'do. Just remember that he's a cutie no matter how long his hair is.

If you want the thread closed, you can send a pm to either Wylie's mom or Admin and they will do it for you.

Wow this post is all ova the place
Listen I apologized in general for my post more than twice earlier and I’m done. I’m not going to let you or anyone else sit up here and make this more than it was. The title was how I felt at the time. Obviously if you took the time and read my post afterwards you would have realized that I was sorry for offending “Anyone”. That could have save you the time with writing saying that I offended you. However you still felt the need to comment.
So, I stated earlier that this was my very first time taking him to groomers, and no, it wasn’t neither of the places that you’ve mentioned. If you will like the name, pm me and I will give it to you. However out of respect for others that associate themselves with the company, I will not broadcast their name, yeah the groomer apologized and that’s why I left out and called the manager on the phone, I didn’t make a scene. I never thought in a million years my post would be dissected like this. I mean it's like me saying you offended me because you said it sounded like I went to pet smart or petco, what does pet smart and petco do horrible grooming jobs, because I'm sure there are people who take their pets their and probably have no problem, but did you think that when you said "Also it sounds like you took her to a pet smart or petco." That, that might offend someone, or even me? It didn't, I'm just saying Because I personally did not think my post had offended anyone as well and after It was brought to my attention i made sure to say sorry.
Sure if you feel that I’m at fault, then hey that’s your opinion. *Damb or damn or D**m, D**b, however you want to say it means the same to everyone; it’s a curse word for example “I love my damn yorkie”, so it can be used anyway you want like Slang. I also used damb when I describe the strands of his hair, tell you the truth I used that word a lot that night, even when I started crying I said "ohh daammb", guess that was offensive as well?
I specifically stated that I was not being Rude, that I did not want this post to go any further as far as being negative, however it seems that it has. No matter what I would have said someone would have been offended, and furthermore if any of us were at a salon and a stylist messed up our hair, I’m sure when we went to vent to whoever it may have been, we didn’t say nice things or weren’t like, it’s just hair. But that's just me, and at that moment, I didn't want to hear that, Some are just stronger than I am obviously.
I thought that this was a place people come to for advice, or even for reassurance. No one’s perfect and I am done apologizing.

*Now on a positive note, seems dolce loves his hair cut, lol... He’s constantly rolling on the floor, and way more vocal and now when he goes on his walks he doesn’t get the leaves stuck up under him. Its bananas cause now, he can even get back into his shirts older shirts, and has even been more affectionate.Lol.
Again thanks for everyone opinions good or bad. I’ve learned a lot about posting, lol. This should be a part of the read first. "If you are emotional give yourself a day before posting, or don’t post at all...

******ALSO PLEASE if anyone knows of a way to close this post, before it gets out of control can you please let me know?
thx

You say here was it Petsmart or Petco ? What exactly do you mean by that ??? That they are not Groomers or their groomers suck ??? Either way it was rude & uncalled for in my opinion. I use a Very Good Groomer who happens to work at Petco.

Oh wait I know, You were upset when you wrote that & didn't mean what it appeared that you meant. Maybe you should be forgiven, and you are . However maybe you should have calmed down & reread your post before you hit ( Submit Reply ) As you may have offended someone by that comment.
