| STOP! and THINK before you pick up a pair of clippers! That is what I should of done before I spontaneously out of the blue, silly nilly decided to give my Bailey a "trim" I put a guard on the clipper that buzzed the hair right off, ( I had a momentary lapse of sanity, don't know what the heck I was thinking!! ) once I made that first unfortunate strike with the clippers there was no going back Now my Bailey looks like a stick figure, he is not pleased with his mommy Jesse did not know what to think of Bailey after the cut!! Never again Bailey, Mommy is so sorry!

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | He's still a handsome boy, Darlene. But I understand what you mean. The first time I picked up a pair of clippers to do a dog, she ended up looking as though she lost a fight with a weed whacker.

| "I had a momentary lapse of sanity, don't know what the heck I was thinking!!" I laughed when I read your post! I've done the same, many times....then sometimes make it even worse trying to make it better. I've only had my Yorkie a little less than a year (but have been grooming my schnauzer for about 6 years), but the first time I cut her, I gave her "shorts"...hard to describe, sort of cut the darker fur short over her back legs, but left the lighter fur longer, making it look like she was wearing shorts. Repeat this mantra....it will grow back, it will grow back, it will grow back. Followed by,... at least I didn't pay someone else to mess it up!!! Always makes me feel better, Marg |

| Awww, I think Bailey looks adorable! You actually did a really nice job on him Darlene. Now is it just me, or does anyone else see a little grin on Jesse's face in that second pic?

| I know exactly what you mean... When I gave Khloe her first hair cut, I really regretted it! I still do and I will never cut her hair that short again. However, I think Bailey looks adorable! You did a great job

| I think he looks great Darlene! You did a much better job than the one time I gave Nappy a major chop job, lol. I regretted it, but it did grow back The one thing I love about the short cuts, is how cute those little Yorkie bodies are! Bailey is adorable any way you cut his hair.
