I am totally miffed once again
Sent other half to the groomers with Lucy ( having changed groomer when Lucy returned hacked to death - beginning to think this was down to OH as well) decided not to trust OH with directions so i printed
Michele's rather excellent clipping guide and told OH to give it to the groomer to follow as this is the look i was after and also to ask to have the fur between her side feathers trimmed to half its length to make burr removal easier.
What do i get? - Her paws look much the same as they did - huge big bear paws! - OH says she told him not to cut them because she thought i didn't like them short
where did that come from
The fur between her side feathers is the same as it was - OH forgot to tell the groomer
I give up
