Grooming gets easier the more you do it.

Derby has thin, curly, cotton hair and we can't grow it. TRust me I've tried... it looks messy and unkept as it sticks straight up and is curly. He gets crap in it, and it matts like mental and sometimes we've had to shave him right down! I hate those days. Stupid burrs...

I just today did the modified schnauzer cut and I must say- I am AMAZING. lol

I would like to learn how to do his FACE a bit better?? but I'm learning (body is the easy part), and thankfully with his floppy ears he looks a bit silly anyway so it doesn't matter... Wherever I screw up, it'll grow. I accidently buzzes his top hair too short one time when he "moved" as I was trimming and we're still growing that out...lol

He is a 13 pound Yorkie with this huge underbite, so really.... what's a few hairs out of place. lol
