shitzu

Question
i had my shitzu clipped on thursday and he is really having a rough time right now it seems like he always holds his left paw out when he goes to sit down as if they twisted his tail they clipped him so close to his skin are you suppose to shave a shitszu tail he has really been cut close to his skin so we are just wandering if this is causing to him act the way he does the first time they did him they just gave him a clipping more less but this time he looks really bald we thought maybe they dropped him when they were cutting him so how long will he last doing this we feel so sorry for him we were trying to get him into the vet but we cant  it looks like they cut to close to the skin some areas are kind of pinkish

Answer
Oh No, poor baby ...  Is this a new groomer or a new grooming assistant?  Why so close of a cut... A puppy shave down... that's what I call a shave, " a puppy cut"...
Call the groomer and ask it all was well at the appointment.  They mostly will say it was great...But, ask anyway.

Yes, get to the vet and let them exam the areas in question..  I am wondering how that left foot is doing and if there is any trauma..

See what the vet says... Hope it will be a good report.
If not, you may have a claim against the groomer.

Let me know what the vet says....

In the mean time, you can give 1 baby asprin today..... ( (1) 81 mg baby asprin - Bayer brand for humans)
Only give one and then get to the vet tomorrow...OK???


Please write back when you know more.
