| How often do you bring your Yorkie to the Groomer? My Rocky had his first hair cut at the end of December. I give him his baths in between but he is too fussy for me to cut his hair. I am too afraid I will hurt him because I don't really know what I am doing. I want to know how often you bring your Yorkie to the groomer to get groomed. Thanks everyone. |

| i only take miss buffey to the groomers (because she has cottony hair that is really tough to cut with my clippers) ... i take her every 12 weeks but could probably stretch it out to 14 or 16 weeks because i have her in a really short puppy cut

| Thank you so much girls. I brought Rocky for his first haircut December 23rd. My husband and I are going to visit his mother Presidents week because we have off. I wanted to get his second haircut before we went up but I wasn't sure if that was too soon. It will be like 7 weeks in between the haircuts. He is also getting neutered February 6th so I would like to have him nice and handsome before we go up. |

| About every 8 weeks. Ben's hair grows really fast, and I hate when he looks scraggley

| I groom all my girls myself but i do take them about every 4-5 weeks for a nail trim. I won't do that myself...too scared! I have a groomer friend that does them for me for $5/dog. I keep all my girls' hair short since they love wearing clothes. |

| I do it myself about every three weeks, or as needed. After reading the comments on YT, I'm afraid to take him to a groomer. |

| I feel the same way but I am too afraid to do it myself. I found a place where I am able to be there and watch the whole time and they don't put the dog in a crate to dry or anything like that. I am hoping they are good. I am afraid and freaking out a little to bring him...haha but I feel since I am able to watch I can quickly get him and take him out if I feel something is wrong. I am bringing my mom for support since my husband has to work...haha |

| I bring Piper every 6 weeks to the groomer. I also will bathe her at least once between each grooming. When I pick her up I always make her next appointment.

| milu needs to goes to the groomer once a month. she can go without longer if they cut the hair a little shorter, then it an probably last a little longer. i think it really just depends on how you like the way your baby to look. i like to keep milu's hair short. so i take her more often. you can always just take her once every two months for the full grooming, and take her in between just for the nail trim. unless you can do that one yourself which would be even better!
