She wasn't.  She was totally pissed off with me. If I could afford it I would send her to a professional groomer to be done.  It took me somewhere between three and four hours to do half of her, I snip for around half an hour then I let her have a break.  She is actually really good about it, except for her ears, because she won't keep her head still I have nipped her ears a couple of times; never anything serious, just a little graze her and there, but its enough to make her HATE having her ears done.

It is.  Once a year is often enough.

They all are, but she is definitely the hairiest.  Her coat is a good six inches long and it is very fine hair so it tangles and knots really easily.

Twice a year I have to trim my parent's Irish Setter and only I can do it is because she is a slut. She likes younger men.

She will probably have to wait till Friday to get finished off.  It would be better if she would let me brush her once a week, but she hates that even more than she hates being trimmed.  I bet she feels better when she's done though.


Angry Dog:
Do you have scissors or honest to goodness electric trimmers? If not, I would really invest in them

ellie mae:
oh poor both of you.  reminds me of the time i held down my ex's cockerpoo (i hate cockerpoos) and cut all his mats off, poor lil guy was just a big wad of matts.  he hated having it done, but he was so happy when i was done.  they wouldnt do it, someone had too.  he wasnt even my freakin dog.  not even my ex boyfriends dog, it was his mothers ex husbands dog...

your girl there is so pretty, i like the hairstyle, it's kinda choppy and "punk" stylish.

I have plain old scissors.  Sharp ones, fortunately.

My friend offered me her clippers today but I forgot to bring them home.

ellie mae:
just be carefull, cause some dogs hate the vibration of the clippers.  my dog hates the pedi paws file thingy, and, well, honestly, he can win.  i dont need his nails to be short.  i dont have nice floors or nuthin
