She does hate bows in her hair, so I do take her to the groomer and have her hair clipped above her eyes. I am disabled and don't want to hurt her, if she moves, so the groomer does this and clips her nails. My Gracie is due in a couple of weeks so I was just curious. |
Oh I didn't realize you were a breeder, we have a breeder's forum, and I know this question has been addressed there before, but without many details. I did want to mention that some coats are a mixture of silky/cotton, and generally cotton coats are the fastest growing, and reach floor length easily, while silky coats are slower growing. A true cotton coat can mat so easily even with daily brushing, so yours may be a mix.
