I think she looks cute short or longer!

KimMee's Mom · 02-15-2006, 11:23 AM

She is so cute and in about 3 weeks she'll be looking fluffy again

PennyNLola · 02-15-2006, 12:05 PM

Hello. I agree with everyone. She does not really look that bad. Does she seem happy with the cut?

Well, either way, she is cute and does not look bad. Just don't bring her back there if you don't like it. That's all! Cute pup though.

The good news is...IT GROWS BACK!

Whatever you do, don't tell Lacey that she got a bad haircut. It will make her self concious and hurt her self-esteem (if that is possible with a Yorkie).

lilbumbleybees · 02-15-2006, 03:10 PM

Personally, I do agree that her muzzle hair was cut too short for her face, giving her to look of an underbite/overbite (whatever you call it haha). But is it at all possible that you chopped on her so much that she was so uneven that all the groomer could do to even her up would have been to take her hair on her head that short. Her body, if you said the inch of length you wanted, the groomer shouldn't have screwed up. My point being, a lot of times we get people in who have hacked all over their dogs and the only hope of "trimming" them is to trim/cut it all to one length so that it grows out evenly, instead of growing unevenly and in turn looking 10 times worse. And most parents are too stubborn to admit they cut just a little too much and a little to not so great than they should have. I think, for a yorkie in a shorter cut, she looks great. With the exception of the hair on her muzzle. You just have to remember it is hair. And Yorkie hair grows FAST! Next time, just be SUPER clear in what you want. Just saying, "oh like a few inches off here, and I want her face to stay long but not oo short, ya know?" doesn't cut it with a groomer. To get EXACTLY what you want, you have to be SPECIFIC. And then there are groomers out there that just don't know what they're doing (*cough*PetSmart/PetCo*cough*). lol I can't WAIT 'til all groomers have to be licensed. I hope that helps you with your next grooming trip. And don't fret so much! She does look cute and it will grow back.

Well, I actually printed pictures off here of dogs hair that I liked. I showed the pictures to her and she said, "Don't even bother sweetie, I already know what I'm going to do with her." Well that right there should have stopped me from leaving her! But oh well, I understand now that it'll grow back, I am just upset because it was her first major disaster we've had. Thank goodness it has only been with her hair!

Oh lord!!! I can't believe she did that. She should have at least looked at the pictures and then said what was possible and what couldn't be done. Whew, yeah I don't know that I'd go back to her. A groomer is supposed to work with what you want, not what they think they want to do. Man, that really amazes me

FireFish · 02-15-2006, 06:14 PM

I agree, With her face she can carry it off.

Zeus' Mom · 02-15-2006, 06:18 PM

She is a cutie no matter what her hair looks like!

jasminetan · 02-15-2006, 10:41 PM

thats too short to be called as a trimmed..that groomer as got it all wrong..poor dear..now bare...

But the fur will grow, and very soon it'll be back as she is.

A pretty darling..

luvmymonkies · 02-15-2006, 10:53 PM

I think she's still as cute as can be. She has a really sweet face. It's nice to change up their style a few times here and there. Otherwise, you'll never know what you really like on her. As you may have seen on a thread I posted, I play with Monkey's hair all the time. He's got a totally crazy cut right now! I think he likes the change. How does your little girl like her cut? Don't worry, if you truely don't like it when you get used to it, it will grow and you can try something new next time. My groomer takes a picture every time I change Monkey's cut so he can look back when I say "hey, remember that crazy cut I did with the blah, blah, blah". When you do get a cut you really like, take a picture of it so you can have it should you change groomers or if your regular is not available. Of course, do this when you actually find one you like!

A) It doesn't look that bad...
b) LOOK OUT, IT"S BAT-DOG!!! I think she looks too freaking precious for words!
