We took Beastie to a recommended groomer for the first time yesterday. I told her we wanted a puppy cut. She told us that this expression was used exclusively for Poodles, and all other breeds were called "teddy bear cuts". I suppose that should have been the first clue. I did tell her what we wanted. When we went back to pick him up, she told us she cut the hair around his head so it wouldn't get in his eyes and that she left the fur around the bottom of his face "round". When she brought him out, he didn't look like Beastie or even a Maltese puppy. He looks like some kind of terrier, and not even a terrier puppy! Sigh....he looks like an old man. She cut too much away from his eyes, which now look sunken.
Anyway, this is the last time for this groomer. Next time I'll find a better groomer who really knows Malts and go armed with pics from here. Poor Beastie, but he doesn't seem to care, and we'd love him if he look like an alien puppy from another galaxy!!
I live in DuPont, WA. Anyone know a good groomer in this area?
