I am so sad!!! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I took Bentley for a trim today and they chop all of his hair off, he looks like a rat, I been crying since I see him....the only thing they said was I'm sorry it was a mistake....I wish I can do something....I know is only hair and it will grow back, but that's not the point, the point is how come you ask and pay for something and they do whatever they want....I feel mad, sad, angry

ARCHIE · 03-22-2007, 08:46 AM

I can feel your frustration. I think we have all been there before!
I was letting Buddy's coat grow in for the first time and last Oct
I took him for just a TRIM to encourage better growth. When I
picked him up his face was cut to the jaw line! I almost cried.
It has been 5 mos and it is just getting back to where it was when
I took him last Oct. I will never go back there again. Actually
I don't know where to go anymore. Never happy with the results.

Oh, I'm so sorry

Fortunately, his coat will grow back. Until then, be sure to brush and comb him out really well so he doesn't get matted. A lot of times groomers have to cut them that short because they're matted - and sometimes they just don't listen to instructions

Maybe you can start grooming him yourself so you can get it exactly the way you want

bentley · 03-22-2007, 08:53 AM

His hair was beautiful no mats, I brush his hair every single day, was long, nice and shiny, I just took him for a TRIM, beacuse I was affraid to do it...I stilll cryin when I see him and he looks sad and down, I don't know why....

Hokule'a · 03-22-2007, 09:10 AM

He's just picking up on your vibes, poor thing. Put a smile on your face and tell him how beautiful he is and go do something fun together! He'll forget all about it before you do

I'm not making light of your situation, I know how upsetting it is to see your baby's coat butchered

Do you have any cute outfits he could wear while his coat grows out?

Dina_Nichole · 03-22-2007, 09:24 AM

So sorry the groomer did this to your baby

bentley · 03-22-2007, 02:35 PM

Oh my God my boy friend just got home and he is so upset....

stedmansmommy · 03-22-2007, 02:43 PM

Awww it's ok sweetie - I know how you feel. I had the same horrible experience the frist (and only) time Stedman went to the groomer. I groom him myself now, I will not risk it again

In fact, I just got done grooming is legs, feet, and back

I'm bet your baby feels so much better and his coat really will come back looking gorgeous I am sure!

bentley · 03-22-2007, 02:51 PM

I think they gave something to Bentley he is been so down, sleepy, sad, not eating, I'm so worry about my poor baby....

Booboo'smommy · 03-22-2007, 03:02 PM

His coat will grow back, don't worry, but I do understand the frustration. Next time when you go to the groomers do tell them what happen before and if this will happen again you will sue them...LOL
But i am sure he looks lovely now as well, he's the same dog.

Since he went to the groomers yesterday, he should be fine today....

By the way since the groomer made a mistake, there should have been no charge.....

Yorkiedaze · 03-22-2007, 03:24 PM

I was going to say the same thing. They should not have charged you for their mistake! Had they done that to one of my babies.........well, some of you know me already!!

Bama Yorkie Mom · 03-22-2007, 06:11 PM

thats the main reason I have never took maggie to a groomer. I'm scared of what she might look like when she comes back to me. so sorry for your hurt. But I would demand my money back.

bentley · 03-22-2007, 07:01 PM

That's what my boyfriend says that we are going tomorrow and get the money back, he is really upset....I'm more worry about Bentley than upset...and he said is my fault that I should stay there with him and see everything, but the don't have that option, and I don't want to feel bad or guilty

Percys_mamma · 03-22-2007, 07:15 PM

What part of Florida are you in? I have been looking for a groomer down here also.

I took Percy in for a groom and left in tears!! They didn't do what I asked them to do at all! They cut all the hair off the top! It was like they did a puppy cut on the top, and left the rest of his face long. I told them I was growing it and just wanted a trim. When I mentioned it, she told me the hair grows fast up top and it was better this way. Now, everything is a different length on his face. He is going to need a trim again soon, and I sooooo scared to take him in.

I wish i knew the different terms for the cuts.
