Eric has been to the groomers and I told her to do what she could but to leave his ears alone and to leave some skirt and feathers on his legs. She has scalped him and taken off his ears completely, all of his skirt and has left his feathers about 1cm long 
Just wondering if your groomer's related to my hairdresser because I've just come back with no fringe, and I tell her and tell her it shrinks and to leave it long.

Actually we get Mollie a severe all over clip every time (about 4 times a year) and I like it like that.  It's so much easier for her this time of year too with no snowballs clagging up her trousers and she stays a lot cleaner when it's muddy, and it's cooler for her in summer.

When I saw the pic, I thought its Pepe Le Pew  :shades:   

Why did she leave his tail though and clip the rest, I'd definitely not go back.    He still looks like Eric and his coat will grow back really quickly.    :luv:

It might be good to have a thread that gave a listing of groomers that we had good or bad reviews of, so that those in the area could see who to go to, and who to leave well alone.

OMG you've hit the nail on the head. That's who he reminds me of. His nickname will be Pepe from now on  :005:

Ah bless that is short! He does look beautiful still but I would be so angry if this happened to Smudge.
Now I am worried because I am taking him to a NEW groomer in 1 hour!
His former groomer has moved but the new groomer was trained by the old groomer so I hope she listens!!!

Well ours is Paula who runs Pampered Pets in Thurso.  SInce we always get a short cut I've no idea how she does show cuts, but I'm not really interested in that.  What I care about is how she treats my dog, and she's marvellous with Mollie.  Talks and whispers to her the whole time and can do things with her that it would be impossible for us to do, given Mollie's back leg hangups.  She has a lovely way with all dogs.

mmmmmmmmmmm...I can see why, poor little man!

Repeat after me "there's only a few weeks between and good and a bad haircut"; keep smiling and when it grows back, give that sheep shearer a wide berth :005:

I hadn't realised until tonight but his bottom and down the backs of his back legs is just skin.
I saw another cocker owner today and had to excuse Eric's awful haircut  ph34r

Yahooooooo. I've just had a very muddy walk with Eric. We were out for 2 1/2 hours and most of it on boggy land and 4 baby wipes later and I have a clean dog  :005: It took me longer to clean myself up, I really don't know how I got mud on my head  :005:
