Shaved & Shocked ...
« on: March 08, 2007, 03:55:05 PM »
Well, here she is, shaved all over, all matts and tangles removed, and even though I thought I'd prepared myself, I still feel like crying.

The groomer said, the matts under her armpits were so extensive, that, once she'd removed them she would have had to do the rest anyway because it was so obvious.

She also said, that the she thought the matts were left from last time, when she went to a different groomer.

Still, it's done, and hopefully, it won't have to be done again, ever.

It's weird, she seems to be all legs now, and, I also discovered, a bit chubby!

Bless her she is gorgeous, I have started to keep Maddy like that for now as we are going away a lot and she is in and out of water all the time, we just can't keep her out unless she stayed on lead all the time and she would hate that.
I love the "Shaun the Sheep" look and "feel" they are so so silky  >:D

Awww poor thing.

It reminds me of me two years ago, our Molly was shaved as she had a large hot spot on her back hip, the vet had to shave most of her leg to get air to all of it, so we decided to have her shaved all over so that when it grew back it was even. OMG, she looked like a Labrador crossed with a Great Dane! I didn't know whether to laugh or cry! Poor thing knew she didn't look right, and boy did she sulk! ph34r :005:

I know it must have been a shock for you - but like others have said, it'll grow back quickly. I must say, she really is a pretty girl....the second photo (and her new haircut) show off her beautiful markings.

Bless her.

I know how you feel, I would be the same. But it will grow back, and you will have a lovely fuzzy  cocker just in time for the warmer weather! ph34r

Hi I think she looks really sweet ans proud of her new style. I keep Charlie quite short as he's always in water and won't stand still enough for a posh trim, but i like the look.
