She is adorable and we all have horror stories about grooming experiences. Thank goodness it is hair and will grow back.

she is soooo cute!! I think I will run into the same problem because I am very specific on what I want.

She is so cute. I am sure she still looks cute even having a grooming mishap.

As for the grooming experience...sorry her first time was so bad. I'm sure she still looks like PUPPY PERFECTION!! Kisses XXXX to her

She's adorable! I just want to kiss on her! LOL

It would be really hard to mess up that face.Don't worry it will grow out fast.

Cute baby.

Snow Yorkies · 01-12-2006, 09:08 PM

Well, she is just adorable and I can understand why you where so excited to get this little dream boat... Her hair will grow out, but I understand how you felt. I personally shave..just the tips of the ears. I think it is what you prefer. Congrats on your baby... and I love looking at her pictures...

So keep them coming !!!

I absolutely hate it when the groomers don't listen. When I take Cinamin (my brittany) in for her shave, I always tell them, make sure to do her ears as well because she is prone to ear infections and it makes it easier for me to clean. They never do her ears and then act surprised when I am upset. grrrrr.

I'm sure regardless of their screwup, Pixie looks just adorable anyway!

She looks just ADORABLE and what great pictures of both of you

bgeier · 01-15-2006, 05:15 AM

Kathryn...I'm so glad you finally got Pixie..I told you they sleep ALL night. Both of mine have from day one. I put them to bed around 8:30 and they don't make a peep until 6:00 am....sometimes 5:15 b/c that's when I get up. They are sooooo good. About the grooming....my friend is a groomer and used to work for a vet. She told me about grooming the yorkies. They are her favorite dog to groom and............the ears are shaved. I haven't seen pics of Pixie since her grooming...but I don't think I'd take her back there. They MUST listen to the customer...DUH. Let's see some pics.

He face was soooo off limits! And they cut it anyway! Boy was I pissed. I had them make a note in red pen, never to touch her face again! It will take forever to grow out nicely! The cut all of the hair on the bridge of her nose, right up to her eyes.. ugh! And trimmes her face all over the place... Thank god they left her coat alone.

I complained and she said.... "oh, you want her face to be long like a yorkie?" I replied "well, yes! She is a yorkie! I was very clear about not cutting!" She apoligized and I have to admitt that she looks good, but just not how I would like.. I guess we cut off her black tips earlier than I had wanted to, but I knew I would have to eventually. But her face will be awkward to grow out! yuck!

And correct me if I am wrong.... When tipping the ears, do you shave or cut? They cut... I would have liked them shaved. It is kinda ragged... I don't think I will go back... I ordered the grooming video and hopefully I will learn enough to groom her myself from here on out!

I'll get pics up soon.

sorry to hear ANOTHER grooming nightmare. I seriously doubt that Shelby will ever go to the groomer.

They are supposed to shave the top third of the ears. They are not supposed to touch the face. Only difference is if you want a "puppy cut" or some people "clean up the eye area"

I like it left alone. I am learning to do it myself but not very good. get some batter operated clippers and try to get Pixie used to the sound.

here is a good website

Jaspersmom started a good grooming thread too.
