Clyde's Worst Haircut

[southernbelle04]

I can't believe they groomed without asking you first! But either way, Clyde is too cute!

Thats weird that they cut his hair but I think any haircut would make him look cute

he is cute either way but she should have not done it without your permission first

I was upset to say the least especially when you get there all the other dogs have been groomed well.
I know now to request a certain groomer. But that will not make her top knot grow any faster. Took a full year to get her top knot long enought to put a ribbon in.
Oh well at least it grows back

I have mentioned this before, find a smaller owner operator groomer, that's what I do and I go at the end of the day, I bathe Lola at home first, then I sit there next to her and approve ever snip she makes on Lola. Lola is a mix so there is not really a standard cut for her so I like to be in on it. I have read so many horror stories on her about grooming I don't think I will ever do it another way.

On the other hand I am guilty of grooming my sisters yorkie without her permission. I can cut and shape the face hair pretty good. My sisters yorkie as a dark face and she has chopped away at the bang area, but left the side of the face long and stringy. she left her at my mothers over Christmas when I was visiting, I could not resist shaping her face up, now LOL my sister waits for my visit to trim Lucy up. But LOL you bettern not do that to my dog

The very 1st time I ever took Huey to a groomer, I was told to be there at a certain time and I was. Little did I know they wanted me to leave him and pick him up that afternoon. Since this was my 1st grooming experience, I did as I was told. (Last dog was lab...no groomer there). I expressly told them DO NOT trim or tip his ears. He was just a pup and ears were still flopped, but I had seen his littermate after grooming with tipped ears and hated the look. Needless to say, when I picked him up that afternoon, his ears were tipped. When I complained, I was told that was the breed standard and to get used to it. (My dog is a half breed mutt...lol...there is no breed standard! ...ok, a "designer dog"...whatever...) Obviously, I never went back there and have never left him anywhere again. If someone groomed my dog without my express permission and/or failed to follow my explicit instructions, I would seriously pitch a fit (to put it nicely) Obtw, his ears have never been trimmed since.

Huey is cute boy, you say he is mix, so is Lola she is half pom, what is Huey mixed with his looks so much like a full yorkie.

9 lb Silky mom, 6 lb yorkie dad. Thank you, I think he's a pretty good looking fella myself.
