We had a pet groomer do this a few times so I just bought my own clippers and do it myself now. My dog looks like a rat when I'm done but fur = shorter and that's all I wanted from the groomer.

I bet your pup looks precious and feels better no matter how bad a job you think you do! And such savings!

One time I took a little too much off the top and had to stop there because I was laughing too hard to hold the trimmer steady. I trimmed the rest of her a few days later.

My friend did that once, just set the clippers way too short and went “oh no!” And just. Stopped. The poor dog had just a ton of fur and then a nearly bald stripe. It was hilarious

My husband and I tried to groom our dogs once. We ended up covered in scratches, fur, and fear. We decided the groomers are worth their fee.
