Yes, thanks! I think it's growing on me- I guess I'm just so use to his longer hair, especially his legs... but it looks good! just like Jackson!
He just has patches on his belly from where I had to totally skin-skin shave him down from some of the bigger burrs... oh well it'll grow...

I took him to the groomers later in the week when we could get him in and had them fix everything but I was so sad because he has this thick coat that I love. We actually keep it shorter now. it just became too much when he got things in it. it is less stress on both of us this way |
Yes, when Derby came home today with my husband my DH warned me: "People at the dog park think we'll have to cut his hair". So away i went trying to get it out-with no luck (and he was crying and biting at his hair etc)
I wonder "How did this happen?" but my DH tells me that he chased a dog around the park only to go off sniffing on his own and end up in a Burr bush!! What a guy.
Derby has a cotton coat so it matts easily anyway, and there was no getting the burrs out whatsoever..

this is true! Derby is 7 months now, but still very much a curious puppy.
My husband is happy his hair is shorter and has been advocating for it for ever~ He loves it short. I like a shorter look, but not this short! Oh well I'm getting use to it...
Matty's hair is so NICE! We had to cut Derby's legs, belly and chest the most! i wish we could've kept some of it longer... but that's a nice cut!
