Long hair chihuahua groom

I’ve been told by many places that other than a bit of tidying up around the bottom long haired chihuahuas don’t need trimming.

I’ve always said I understand and that’s fine but still want washed/nails cut etc

So new groomers. I said give him a pamper, cut nails etc He’s been trimmed. Quite short, shaved on his back legs and bottom, lots off his tail, his ears, bib and all over his back has been trimmed.

Obviously chihuahua hair stops growing at a certain point (hence the no need for trimming) but how long does it take to grow back when the majority of him has been shaved??

It should grow back fairly quickly. I had to trim my chihuahuas back legs as she’d developed dreadlocks (have now learnt to brush better!) and they’ve pretty much grown back.

I hope you complained to the owners.

Not long at all.

Why did they shave him? Was he matted?

@icedcoffees not matted at all, he’s pure chihuahua so has the silky hair that doesn’t matt easily like some other long haired breeds or crosses and is groomed regularly because he loves it lol
Happy it shouldn’t take long to grow back, he looks very odd bless him
