I just groomed MY little Oliver's hair two nights ago. He is 16 weeks on Saturday, but he sure was a little furball! His hair was like two inches long! It took me almost three hours, but that included bathing him and drying him. My husband fed him his dinner as "treats" to keep his attention away from the scissors. Honestly, it looks amazing and I'm so glad that I did it! With the texture of his hair, you can't even tell that it wasn't professionally done. Try it.
