You sound like me- I had a couple stages where I was growing it out- then I cut it- then I was growing it out again!! LOL I think because their hair is so much like ours it’s fun to play with- However I caved every time and shaved Peanut- Peanut is really active, especially in the summer- We are always out on the boat, in the lake, at the desert- so for us it is easier for him to be shaved- in the winter months I will grow it out to a point where he is just “shaggy” just so he stays warm!

I know for sure those who have full coats or ½ full coats is a lot of work!! I could not brush him every day, or bath him once a week!

How long is Bentley’s hair?
