Shaved ears and tail?

[Ronna, Murphy & Wilson]

Before I post a picture...which may be a long time because I can't bring myself to take one......does anyone have a picture of a doodle with SHAVED ears and tail???????

I can beat any groomer horror story you've got....promise!  I am so angry I can't begin to put into words what I am feeling without using numerous expletives.  Murphy had some matting on his tail and coat.  He swims quite a bit and they get worse everytime he gets in the water.  He went to the groomer today and I knew she would need to do some repair work on the ears and take his tail down very short.  I was worried about the tail but had accepted it.  I went to pick him up and he is cut exactly like a Schnauzer.  She shaved his ears and tail along with the rest of his body.  Not only are they shaved they are all choppy with some long pieces here and there.  It is the most awful thing I have ever seen.

Did I mention that my sweet Murphy now has SHAVED EARS and Tail??????

All I can do is cry.

I don't want to post a picture because it is so awful.......everyone here is so supportive and I know you would feel like being kind but it is impossible.  There is no way this can be fixed and there isn't a liar on the earth good enough to be kind about it.

I have never seen a doodle with shaved ears....have you?  Anyone?  Got a picture?

I am going to go back to crying and drinking now.

All I will say is Wizard of Oz, lol

Oh my gosh Tina - that is exactly what I saw too.  I was just going to type it right out on here but I don't want to make Ronna hit the bottle this early - lol.

Ok so I am assuming you are talking about ToTo and not one of the witch's winged monkey warriors.....Toto has more hair.  It is sad.  Just sad.  He kind of looks like the Grinch's dog, Max.  I could strap an antler to his head.

Ronna, really he's gonna be ok.  Its you I'm worried about.  lol  Here's my naked doodle, had a mat or two and came back to have him shaved to the skin!  pink skin in August, not good.

Poor You! Poor Murphy. I think he's still cute no matter what but I can see why you're upset, especially if you paid money for this and it was done that badly. I would definitely complain, demand soem sort of compensation. At least your doodle is still himself at heart, real beauty is on the inside!

Anyone else see the resemblence between Murphy and the Grinch's dog Max?

[Jane, Rooney & Stuart]

I have always loved that dog from the Grinch!   Very cute and no I was not thinking about Toto - lmao.  Now don't start drinking!!!!  (or I might have to join you for moral support)

Ditto!  I just got back from DD swim lessons and the first thing I had to do was check DK.  This is too funny.

[Ronna, Murphy & Wilson]

OMG!!! Are you talking about the Lion?  BTW this is not Murphy.  I sure wish I had a flask in my desk drawer!!

[Jane, Rooney & Stuart]

Cute costume - lol.  No not Toto, not Lion - I'm saying that that 1st photo of Murphy - his face - looks like a flying monkey (which I believe are cute).  I hope you have had a drink and are laughing. 

[Ronna, Murphy & Wilson]

Jane, I was afraid that is what you and Tina meant. That's just sad.  But yes, I am laughing now.
