| Another "Who does it?" thread I think it is fun to see who does what with their furbabies. So here goes another one: Just wondering who cuts their own babies hair?

| I trim Fancy's booty but thats it, I haven't trimmed her hair, I want it to grow long! I bathe and clip her nails and I'm thinking about shaving the tops of her ears. *thinking* I haven't made up my mind yet. Oh, and I clean her ears out with a q-tip and brush her teeth too.

| I trim between professional grooming. I am not very good with it. I am not patient and mine do not cooperate with me nearly as well as they do the groomer. I have trimmed one ear and wound up leaving the other for the next day when we both have had enough. I would so love to be able to do it all myself. I bought the grooming videos and lots tools, but I guess I don't have the "art."

| I tried to trim kiki but I clipped her ear so I'm done. Everybody kept telling how easy it is but I think you have to have a skill for it. I don't. So I'll just keep taking her to the groomers. I do bathe , trim nails, and try to brush her teeth.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | So far Roxy's only been to the groomer once. It was more of an intro for her. She's silky & hair grows very slow. I do all her grooming. May not even have to get clippers. Scissors is all I've needed so far. At this point I don't know that I'll take her back to groomer again. She is quite good at tolerating all the different stages of grooming. Gets better all the time. I don't go through all the steps at once though.

I cut my own babies hair. I am a groomer so I take them up to the salon and trim the or just give them a bath. It is easier to do it there then at home. Before I was a groomer I took them to get it done because they act better there then at home.
