The new dog haircut (Video)

Carli Cunningham of Parkville couldn’t help but chuckle when she recently picked up her dog Ruger, 4, from an appointment with a new groomer to find that the stylist didn’t quite deliver what she requested. In a 30-second clip, Cunningham giggles in her car as her pup paws around in the backseat, evidently unfazed by the wonky new look. “So he looks great right here …. I mean as best as he can,” the woman patiently explains before bursting into hysterics. “Ruger, what happened to you buddy?!” she wonders. The playful pet won himself a visit to the groomer after jumping to a “swamp” like pool.

With his usual groomer unavailable for an appointment, Cunningham decided to contact another professional and asked for a “teddy cut” for her sweet pup. “I agreed to have her cut his mats out and explained our groomer does a ‘teddy cut’ where she tapers his fur on his butt down and gets the mats out and thins it,” the dog owner said. “I spoke with [the new groomer] on the phone and she recommended ‘starting over to the skin’.” Specifying that she did not want Ruger to be completely shaved, Cunningham suspects that the new groomer “got fed up with me and decided to give him pants.” When she picked her pet up from the stylist, the Missouri woman was shocked to find her dog had been given a “pantless” cut — while the rest of his coat went untouched.

She was shocked with the haircut

“Ruger came running out of that back room as if he was the other man in a cheating woman’s house,” Cunningham joked of the ultimate look. “The damage was done and I was so mad I laughed, a lot.” From the front, Ruger has the typical Newfie haircut, but from behind he looks like a Poodle! Due to a miscommunication with the new groomer, her pooch wound up naked on his entire backside. The doggo looks totally embarrassed, and can you blame him? Watch the video, we feel your pain and think you look styling for summer, Ruger!
