Getting your dog groomed is a pretty normal experience, both for the pet, and the pet parent. But sometimes, your groomer might bite off a little more than they can chew, leaving your poor pet with a... questionable haircut.
I don't think any of these owners (or their poor pet!) were expecting the groomers to do any of these strange haircuts.
I guess "please shave my dog's belly" got lost in translation somewhere along the way.
This looks like the kind of haircut you give yourself in the mirror at 3am out of desperation. Not that... not that I'd know anything about that...
Here's hoping it grows out nicely. And quickly.
I guess sometimes your dog's groomer is... you. In which case, good luck.
They really got this dog to look like the quiet dude who sat behind you in English class.
The original post claims the groomers shaved this doggo down because of matting. But... why did they have to leave that puff of fur on the top? Poor guy looks so unbalanced with this new haircut.
This poor dog... this poor dog looks like a human in a dog costume. I feel bad for laughing.
Funny enough, the dog doesn't even seem to mind that much. I guess it's going to be a real showstopper at the dog park, and not just because of that cute face!
This poor fellow's face says it all. But hey, that's just what happens when a cat has too much matting and needs to get its fur shaved down.
I don't know what's worse, the perfectly round tuft of fur on the poodle's head, or those pink pom-pom paws. I think I'm leaning more toward the pom-pom paws.
I'm gonna be real here: cats that have had their fur shaved will never not look hilarious.
This poor dog. The face and everything.
Side note, but this really makes you think about how much of our perception of dog species is based on their fur patterns.
I mean, it could've been a lot worse. And is it just me, or does the dog look sadder in the after picture? I can't blame the poor pup, though; that haircut is absolutely tragic.
Poor Henry does not have the kind of fur for a Mohawk. But at least he's not letting it bring him down!
I just want to know why this poor dog's haircut was on the head and neck only. The groomers have this pooch looking like some kind of circus sideshow. And now, it isn't a trend that's going to catch on.
Why does this dog look like how I do when I blow dry my hair after a shower? That's some serious static and frizz, and something tells me a flat iron won't help.
Poor dog has a single shaven leg. My guess is that the fur was taken down for shots or something. Still, it's gonna be an awkward few months until it grows back.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm getting more "goth boyband from 2006" from this haircut. But I guess there was, like, a weird overlap between the two styles.
I take it these cats weren't patient enough to let a groomer shave their legs — even though it means they have to walk around with literal boots for a few months.
I wish I could, but I cannot. Somebody shaved this poor dog, but decided to leave a single strip of fur for... reasons. Will we ever know the reasons? Nope.
I thought that shaved cats were the funniest thing in the world. I stand corrected. It's shaved huskies.
Poor dog probably had a lot of matting to get to this point. Friendly reminder to run a brush through your pets when you can!
