Camarolynn, see if your groomer will give you a break on the fee if you bathe him yourself. I haven't done it yet but I have asked and the nearest groomer is okay if I do it that way. I can clip the nails and pull the ear hair and even buzz the butts but that hair between the pads!!!! Non-cooperative little brats!
They'll let me do the nails altho it makes them nervous which in turn makes me nervous which in turn makes them more nervous. By the time we're done we're tired. Except with Pirogue. Someone at one of the groomers must have gotten him good. By the time I'm done with him we are both shaking like leaves. No kidding! And he hasn't been to a groomer in, um, I don't know how long. Can you believe that? He's just a year old. So I guess it's been at least 6 mos. Really seems like he should know I'm not going to hurt him by now. Sylvia |
