A video on TikTok has left people in stitches after Fernie Montafur admitting that her attempt to cut her dog’s hair did not go as well as she expected. The viral video is captioned: “Not me thinking that I could easily cut my dogs hair and save $50,” and begins with picture of an adorable Yorkshire Terrier.
Then, she unveils her dog’s new look and TikTokers were quick to joke in the comments. One said: “Did you change her entire breed as well?” Another replied: “How did you go from Yorkie to a Chihuahua??”
Another joked that the poor dog looked “five years older” and a fourth said: “Bro was holding back tears,” to which the owner reposted in another video saying “she really was.”
The video has racked up almost five million views and nearly one million likes. Ms Montafur replied to the video saying: “Please for the love of god, don’t come at me. I genuinely tried my best and feel horrible.

“Ensure you are calm when grooming your dog. Go slowly and pay close attention to what you are doing and your dog’s reaction.
“Watch for signs of stress, such as trembling, whining, or panting that’s not heat-related, and take a break if needed.
“Be extra cautious when using scissors and nail clippers. If your dog tends to panic and won’t stand still, try grooming more often, like once a week, and just do a little bit at a time.
“Be sure to give lots of praise, petting, and treats. Make it a positive experience.”
