Haircuts?

[SHELLYDAWN]

Good Morning all!

I was curious if anyone has pictures of of their babies after they have been to the groomers. I am looking for ideas and I am totally nervous to take Milly when the time comes.

Thanks so much,

Shelly

Yumi has only had 1 big time hair cut so far here's the before and after. 1st is before 2nd a day after and the 3rd pic is maybe 2 weeks later. It was a huge shock she didn't even look like the same dog, but after a few days I got used to it, and when it started to soften up a bit I even liked it. She is so much easier to brush now I absolutely love it.

Awwww, soooooo cute! I am so nervous. All these what ifs ..lol

Thank you

Remember, it's just hair It will grow back. I groom my two myself because I don't like paying someone else to mess their hair up

Hi,

It's not so much about how much hair will be be removed. It's more so that she will be so scared and I have heard some horror stories about mean groomers. It would break my heart if someone was even just a little mean to her in any way

I find that doing a image search on goggle helps a lot, I did not always know about the image part of the search so I would be looking through web site after web site, now I just see the images when all I am interested in is pictures

Where are you taking her? I found a groomer that lets me stay while she's grooming Georgie. I always get a puppy cut for him.

Ugh, I hear ya. Grooming is ridiculousy expensive. I have no problem paying crazy costs for a vet check up, vaccines, shots, neutering, spaying, microchipping, ect but when it comes to groomers, i want to rip my hair out. Well, makes more sense to rip my own dog's hair out but obviously that is just inhumane and crazy haha

Likewise !

I've got a little "fetish" with Long Hair on their Ears and Tails.
I have "attempted" to preserve that length (on both) since they were born.
I was JUST DEVASTATED, having told the Groomer to NOT cut the hair on their tails or ears, then to pick them up, and BOTH of them had gaping holes/notches cut in their ear hair.

It was like the Groomer was doing a electric clip up their backs, and jambed the Clippers into their ears, while no doubt gossiping with another Groomer.

I AM LIVID !!!!

I had bad experiences with 2 groomers and that's how I found this one. When Georgie was 2 I took him to a place that "specialized" in smaller breeds. When I got my sweet boy home he had clipper burn on his unmentionables!!!! I was so upset rushed him to the vet and they gave me meds and ointment. The Vet recommended my current groomer and I just love her. She charges me $30 and I get to sit and wait.

Sorry Shelly didn't mean to hijack your thread with my grooming horror story. I will tell you Georgie didn't act like it bothered him at all Thank God!

This is Sophie at one of her first groomings. She has a cottony coat so I mostly keep her in a short puppy cut. I pay her groomer $33.00 +tip.

I also have a groomer that lets me stay while my dog is being cut, I don't have her bathed there, I do that first a day before. I go at the end of the day when she is just about finished. The type of groomers that are willing to do this are usually small owner operated ones, I like those type of places the best anyway, they tend to get to know your dog and you can talk peronally with them and if you can't stay at least you know who will be grooming your dog

I bathe Georgie as well and dry him. She is definitely a small owner operated. She has a couple of people that help. I like that as well.
