a GOOD groom! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

After reading all the horrible stories here about Yorkies being groomed, I was a little nervous about taking Tinka in today for her first "full" groom.

I made sure to tell the groomer that I DID NOT want her shaved all over. So, we talked about what might look best - she explained things to me like her longest blade was 1". I kind of got scared cause that sounded way too short. Anyway, she ended up being shorter on her torso with a little skirt, longer on the legs and face and enough on top for a topknot. I was afraid to look at her when I went to get her but she is adorable!!!

I never thought she would look that cute! She looks so much smaller now, too cause she has the cottony hair and she was ALL hair!

So - there's a good story for everyone!

I also told the groomer I was taking Tinka to puppy class tonight and didn't want her to look dorky. She laughed and said she had to do a good job cause people would ask who messed up the groom if she didn't do well!

I wish I could post a pic but my son is mad at me and won't let me use his camera.... ho hum.

I'm so glad you got a GOOD cut, the grommer I used did not know how to cut yorkies. I'm glad you found a better one. Oh about son's I have one to he will help me a little with things then back to what ever he was doing, he says you do it. I have my own camara and my daughter showed me how to use it.
