Do y'all groom your furbabies yourselves? I really think I'm going to give it a try after last week.
| Oh my, poor little Jasper - and poor worrying mummy! :) He WILL come round, it won't take long....you were doing a good thing for him and unfortunately it's all gone a bit haywire THIS TIME :)
No, I don't groom Harry.....we do around his bottom and eyes etc....but I leave the rest to his groomer, as she does nails and expresses his anal glands etc.
I personally think it's worth you giving it a go though, as you were so upset :( There's no harm in it, the hair does grow back fairly quickly as you know....and at least you can do it a little at a time, gauging him as you go :) I truly with you luck! Sally x Quote:

I agree that he sounds like something was disagreeable when his face was being groomed and that has made him skittish. I do groom Huey myself, mostly. I have given up the toenail/feet fight, so I have a groomer that I take him to just for his clean feet (feet clipped very close, silky-style) and nails. Everything else I do myself. The first year, I had to take him to a groomer to be evened up a couple of times :rolleyes: but with experience I have become much better and faster and I think he looks pretty good. Good luck with the grooming. Trial and error, and the hair DOES grow back.:D
| Exactly! And congratulations....he's a gorgeous little boy :) Sally x |
