| Should I Shave Otis's Other Leg? Otis had to have his right leg shaved for an IV (he got his teeth cleaned), and it looks horrible. I was wondering if I should shave the other leg to match it. What do you think? |

| My Lola went through the same thing. I would'nt shave it because the hair will gorw back rather quickly. |

| I would shave all four just so he'd be different from all the others. The hair does grow back but this way it kind of adds a new spin on the whole IV look.

That's what I was thinking too! I don't think I could do the hind legs because they're too boney. But my boyfriend said in honor of Otis's leg being shaved, he was going to shave his own leg too. | |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Cali had her one leg done on a Monday andd then had to go back in on Wednesday and had the other leg done. Well they started to grow back and then she went in for surgery and they did one leg. But the hair on the first leg has almost grown back and it's been 3 months. I would leave it until it gets some hair on it and then trim the other a little shorter.JMO

| I think leave it alone, Otis can start a new trend, ala LL Cool J and his one leg pants up type deal. I think it's cool, other Yorkies will follow Otis's lead.... Oh yeah, I want a pic of Mike's leg shaved, (pssst... you should have him WAX it)... |

Yes but he wouldn't be really starting a trend simply because all the other dogs that go in and have IV'S also have their legs shaved. By just shaving the front two he'd really be starting a new trend.

| I think that I would just leave it and they when it starts to grow out I would just trim the other one to match! I cant believe your bf is going to shave his leg too...how funny!

| Kelsey's leg is still shaved from her Spay surgery. I think it is fine. It is already growing back.

| Baby looks the same way. I just left it. It's growing back, and it's barely noticeable.
