Ted is 10 months old and is a fluffy monster! He's chocolate roan . He comes back from his walks covered in mud, sticks, burrs etc and has to have a bath once a week (the water is black!). I want him hand stripped (groomer saying coat not quite ready yet). Where his neck has been stripped the hair is lovely and silky. Do you think I'm being fair to the boy? Would he be happier (and cleaner) clipped?
I don't mind the work in bathing him ( but he hates it). He does however love the hair dryer - falls asleep.
