Those were great tips. I am not a new member but I have been away for quite some time. Things have been extremely busy; however, I sure logged back on at a good time. I am taking my Molly in for her first grooming experience next week. She is about six months old now - I know, I probably should have taken her before now to get her accustomed to it, but I have trimmed her with scissors around her feet, privates and so forth up til now, but she is past due for a good cut. We bathe about once a week and comb EVERY day to make sure she doesn't get tangles or by no means mattes and she has a wonderful coat, but I really prefer to keep it in a puppy cut.
Anyway, to my first question. Is there any advice you can give me to help make her first visit a little easier on her and the groomer? Should I stay with her or just be availabe or I guess that is the groomers ultimate decision, huh? I want to be there to comfort her and I don't want her to think I just abandoned her, but I would rather her be mad at the groomer and think I came back and rescued her!!
Second, Molly has been shedding a good bit. I know they are going to lose some hair just as we do. I live in NC and it is pretty hot and humid right now so I don't know if that has something to do with it or not. Does anyone have any suggestions though to help with that?
So, thanks for any advice you guys may have. Maybe I won't be as long in between times on YT in the future. I really miss it. It's like a whole new forum since the last time I was here!!
