Oh my gosh...when I had Jasper groomed the first time, the groomer shaved around his eyes and the bridge of his nose. I'm trying to grow his hair back out, as well. But, it grows so slow and he gets those crustys, too. He is such a wiggle worm that I can't get all of it out. Drives me nuts....which drives him nuts because I'm constantly trying to get it out. Am I right in my thinking that if it grows out he won't have that crusty stuff anymore? And that his hair and whiskers (which she also cut really short) will lay down again? Sorry....not trying to high jack your thread OP.
