Buttons' new haircut.

Well I have just dropped Buttons off for a bath and a tidy up.I have asked for no clippers as I would like the option of handstripping him when it is ready.....I am going to give it a go myself hopefully!

Anyway,I am sitting here feeling a little nervous as to how my little shaggy man is going to look on his return.....

I will post a picture so that you can see the end result!

He'll be fine as long as he is cut and not shaved

Aw bless him. Can't wait to see how he looks xx

just a bath,nails and some tidying up with the scissors.....

Well I am so relieved....exactly what I asked for.

He has been bathed,nails trimmed,hairy feet trimmed right back,I can actually see his pads now and the rest of him has been just tidied up a little. Very subtle but easier to manage.......

Before and after photos below.I am afraid the side views are both action shots.He is a cocker puppy after all!

Oh see you had nothing to worry about!

Awe bless he's coming on a treat hun.

He's very cute either way!

I would personally start a bit of stripping on his head if it's ready, I always find it easier to start when they're young.

I have tried tugging and nothing is coming out.He likes me trying though!

It may be that he has no dead hair on his head to come out. Isla has a very hairy head and needs doing regularly, but I've only just needed to start doing Rossi's and he's nearly two now!

I would just try it with a pair of finger cots or rubber gloves and pluck out any wispy bits (the dead hair) you can see sticking up. When I get home later I'll try and get a pic of Fatty Isla's head as she's well over due to be stripped out, then at least you can see what I'm on about.
