His groomer has gotten WAY too expensive for just a trim so I tried to shorten his face fur and ears a little bit last night. Um... it's not too bad. At least I can see his eyes now and his ears aren't dragging through the water bowl.

It's clearly going to take a lot of practice, though.

I think we should be the judges of that.
Pics please!!

 

[Mama3tikes]

Nance-if you're not careful, you can get a 2nd job as a groomer and jack of all trades! GO GIRL!

PICS!!!!

My mom trims her lhasa by herself too.

Was at a show today and they were holding a lhasa specialty and I thought of you and Scamp!!

The nice thing about trimming them is they won't complain! I have clippers for Bozzie, he loves it when it's time to cut his hair. He comes and sits by me outside and just lays there. I don't know what he would do for a professional. I get a little better each time, except when I'm in a rush. It will be fine Nance!!! I wonder if groomers are finding the business hard to come by in this economy.

Oohh...judging the trim..this could be the JL version of a reality show! lol. I'm sure it turned out well. But, yes, we do need pics!

When I was growing up, we had a Cocker Spaniel. My granny (he was really her dog!) kept him trimmed and groomed. There isn't a groomer anywhere could have done a better job. And before ya know it, it'll bethe same for you!

Nance, I used to trim my Cockers. Just get a good set of clippers, use the longest trim guard to start with on the body, then a closer one for his face. As you and he get more comfortable with it, you can trim shorter.

Can't wait to see pictures of the neat and trimmed Scamp. I'm sure he's a handsome boy.
