Sophie Bear Gets Groomed!

Hi Everyone, I took Sophie Bear to her first full grooming today. As per the advice I got in the grooming group, I filled in the 'doodle doo' checklist and brought pictures of doodle styles I like. She decided to do her own thing, well, she sort of talked me into letting her. I've never brought a dog for a grooming before so was insecure about what to ask for. I should know better by now, I always get the best advice on DK, better advice than at the pet store, better than the vet, so why not better than the groomer? What can I say I'm a pushover!

Anyway, despite the fact taht she looks likea bobblehead, I kind of find her cute in a goofy sort of way. Her skinny legs are hilarious. And she's a happy girl so that's all that matters. Now I can take her swimming without worrying about mats, and she'll be so much easier to bath.

I'd really like to know everyone's honest impressions. How would you rate the ob the groomer did, and what would you have done differently?

So here are the before during and after pics :o)

So, what do ya think?

So velvety! She looks beautiful! I know how shocking it is when yo go from the 'mop look' (which is usually the look Tori sports) to short and sassy. But she looks great! - even tho' she does look pretty p.o'd in the last 2 pics! LOL

Thanks everyone for your replies. I took her swimming today and the 'poof' got back to it's shaggy self. Plus, I was so happy with how quickly she dried and that I didn't have any brushing to do. :o)
