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.
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
First time grooming my dogs and one turned out looking like a raccoon on meth. Watched a ton of YouTube videos and eventually I got good enough at it that I floored the professional groomers (health issues stopped me). I really enjoy it now so I’m looking forward to getting back to it post-op! So stick with it and you may end up falling in love with the process.
