When a dog starts looking a bit long in the coat, it’s time for them to get a groom. Just like a haircut can transform how we humans look, a good grooming can make a pup look like a brand-new dog. These 22 photos are proof of that! Read on to see some incredible grooming transformations.
1. Sad Little Mess
Bandit went into the doggy parlor looking like a sad, scraggly mess. But, she came out all refreshed and now has a pep in her step!
2. She Aged Backwards
Abby went from looking like a tired, worn out old dog to an adorable puppy! Maybe the fountain of youth is dripping into her water bowl?
3. Shaggy Rug Carpet
This poodle mix had so much shaggy hair, he couldn’t even see straight. Now he has plenty of sass, and you can see the interesting pattern in his black and white fur.
4. Foxy Roxy
This Pom Yorkie mix named Roxy probably thought she was just “big boned” before all that heavy fur was shaved off. Now that she’s lost some weight, it’s time to head to the beach for an epic summer season.
5. Scary Mess
Poor little Ellen had been abused, and when she was first discovered rescuers couldn’t figure out if she was a boy or girl. After 2 pounds of matted fur was shaved off, the big reveal showed her to be a sweet little girl.
6. Wookiee Cut
So this is what a Wookiee looks when he’s bald! He looks great, but he doesn’t seem to be too happy about losing his Star Wars appeal.

“Yes, I said all of it!” And oh what a difference it makes.

Shipley and Bear had tons and tons of matted hair. They don’t even look like the same dogs after the makeover.

11. All That Fur Was Making Me Crazy!
This pom pup got her first haircut. She went into the groomer looking like an over-caffeinated pom, and came out as a very calm chow chow!
12. Does This Mean Winter Is Gone?
Totally new dog! All that long hair is gone. With the summer heat, she’s probably not missing all the itchy scratchy stuff one bit.
13. Whadda You Lookin’ At?
“Haven’t you ever seen a doggy makeover before? This is what it looks like. Stunning.”
