Schnautese

Again, she became a "Schnautese" (Schnauzer + Maltese) again! Why I said AGAIN is because I had a horrible experience in another pet shop, they trimmed Kimi like a Schanuzer, as in the back hair are SO SO short, and the hair at the lower part are longer , like wearing a skirt like that (picture on left). I'm not saying Schnauzer style is horrible, but I think that certainly doesn't suit a Maltese lo. The gal sumore told me this style very popular, many Maltese babies also trim like that. So I trusted what she said, but I never thought it'd be like this, a Schnautese, that's the name I think for it.

Ok, well, I admitted is part of my fault 'coz I didn't ask the gal how exactly she was going to trim Kimi, can't blame her totally. It's just very heart pain lo, see Kimi looked like that, all the people also said she look so weird and ugly! Luckily she didn't get depression. She really looked different, from a fluffy and hairy puppy into this kinda strange look. The face sumore trim until so "triangle". Can see right? A reversed triangle on her face. This wasn't the thing that made me most angry. They even cut her one her paw. The next day she only I noticed it when I saw Kimi kept licking her own paw, so when I checked it I saw the skin was almost peeled off and some blood there. So terrible!! I know they did not do it purposely, sometimes dog might move here and there while grooming, but at least let me know, they just kept quiet about it. Which I really can't accept. Since then I never go back to that pet shop again. Boycott! It took about 2 months for Kimi to look nice and cute.

Ok, so yesterday, I sent Kimi for grooming yesterday as her hair was quite long and messy, so feel like giving her a more tidy hair coat. So I talked to this groomer about the style that I wished Kimi to be groomed.

I said, I wanna trim her hair, not too short, cause the hair is abit long now especially the lower part of her body. NOT TOO SHORT ('coz phobia already). I kept on emphasize on don't trim until too short and I don't want the lower part hair so long, make it same as the top. The groomer kept nodding her head, gave me an impression that, she knows what I want, she understands what I said. I was happy lo, I was thinking, finally, she knows what I really want. So I handed Kimi to her and left for lunch.

When I back, when I saw Kimi new look, reminds me of the time 2 months ago. Sigh, I don't understand la, why the people don't understand me. So I asked one of the staff there while Kimi was still inside with the groomer.

"Why is it her hair so short?".

Hua lao, he answered me, "acutally from far you will see the hair is short, but it's quite long one, it's unlike Schnauzer, those are really short that you can see the skin".

Wei!!! Why do I wanna compare it with a Schnauzer?!

Then I said actually this is not what I really want lo (was trying to be polite), it's really too short for me.

So he said, "Oh, like that ar..........(Silence)".

Sigh, then I said never mind la. But in my heart really abit sad la. So wasted la, the hair kept for about 2 months, though is only 2 months, now all gone. Sigh. So when the groomer came out and gave Kimi to me, she asked me was it too short (the staff earlier told her about my comment). I said yes, this wasn't what I want, I want the top and lower part length to be the same. Then suddenly she said, "Oh, teddy bear style la you want". Somemore with that kind of look that saying "you should tell me earlier". Wei!!, How I know that called teddy bear man? Duh....

So this is how she looks like now, of course is better than last time,
as in the face is not triangle lo.

So short the back hair.


Still acceptable la hor.

Promise my laopo earlier that will upload Kimi's video..Here it comes la baby.

Is Kimi that scary that shocked both you and your sister..? Oh..so sad...Actually she doesn't look that bad. I do not blame entirely on the pet shop cause I believe there might be some miscommunication between me and the groomer. I did bring Kimi there once, and I was really impressive and happy for their service at the first time, that's why I brought Kimi to that pet shop again. Apparently, the pet shop owner called me up, and apologized for the mistake they made yesterday. She said she will give me 4 basic grooming for Kimi at 0 cost. They'll give Kimi some treatment to help her hair grow faster. I think they did their part well, at least we consumer feel not so bad after the bad incident.
The pet shop is located at Metro Prima, but then I don't think it's good to reveal the name over here, sorry tiffany
