| First Attempt at Grooming Okay, some of you may know that I purchased a boatload of stuff from PetEdge and Groomers.com (A big shout out to Manolo's Mom---thanks). Well I promised a couple of you that I would take some pics of the first grooming....don't hold it against me...no where near perfect. This is Jack Jack the Quacker.....poor little fella has hip dysplasia so he was tired of standing after the groom, so I will have to get some profile side shots later. The first one on the couch is "pre" home groom.....next three are post groom....sorry for the slight blur. I need to work on the ears better. Let me know what you think and any tips and tricks!! More kiddos tomorrow!

| You did a great job! I groom both of mine at home, and I find it to be a lot less stressful experience for all of us. Keep up the good work!

YT Addict | Excellent! Excellent job! I never took Gizzy's coat this short (the longer hair is my preference) but it really looks like you had this professionally done! Jack Jack is precious!

| Looks perfect to me! I've started grooming Shadow and she does not look that good. I have alot of trouble with her hair under her chin. With the colors changing all the time, she always looks "chopped". |

| I agree, great job! Jack Jack looks very handsome and judging from his smile, he thinks you did everything right. |

| Very impressed here! I never would have thought this was your first attempt. I have been grooming mine at home for 2 years now and we are no where near this good. we've had to accept our own style b/c of my inabilities. But I still prefer this over the thought of taking them to a groomers. Peggy, Monkey & Maddie
