His back looks as if the groomer picked up his hair took the scissors and chopped, chopped, chopped.
Needless to say I called her & told her my husband & I don't like it. Now, I was really nice about it. Found out the owner was letting another girl groom him the last two times he was groomed. (Didn't like 1st time either). I thought I was booking the owner to groom. So when I called about the alful job, I requested her to groom. So wish us luck this Tuesday. |
Perhaps just a little skillful finish work with the shaver will do the trick to even out the back. I do my own grooming but within two months Deuce needs to be shaved again. Here's a few pics of the style I use on him. I usually use a #7 blade on his neck,back and chest and scissor trim his legs, head and tail during cooler months. The picture with him in front of the rubber tree is a shorter cut. I used a #10 blade on the clippers for his back, neck and chest and a #7 on his legs then scissor trim. I do keep his belly short with a combination of careful shaving and scissors. The ticks were brutal this summer so although I hated to cut his leg hair I had to do it so I can keep an eye on things. It will grow back in no time. I end up trimming him every two months. I leave his tail fluffy but most seem to shave it. Hope this helps in finding the right "hair-do" for your baby.
