Guess I have the best deal going, I shampoo her myself so I know what's being used and don't have to worry about dryers (which do worry me) My groomer trims her up while I stand and watch....Sure she probably thinks I'm a real wierdo, now ask me if I care....lol

Good luck with your baby, I know how it is when they have itching problems because we have allergies.

I bath my own yorkie. I use johnson's baby shampoo, so it won't burn his eyes...and I do my own trimming around his eyes. I hold his chin hair with one hand, and use baby scissors on the hair around his eyes. It may not be professional looking, but he has never been burned by the dip they use, or the shampoo, or the dryers. We walk a lot. so I don't trim his nails. The concrete keeps em low.

When I shave my girl's privates (under her tail) she gets very itchy.....I now shave it not as closely as I used to and there's no probs. As far as the throwing up I'm sure it's stress. They are very sensitive and some people are rough with them. That's why I do my own now.
