For some reason the photo's are coming up really big, despite resizing prior to uploading or resizing using photbucket.
So here are links:
Barney's back leg, it clumps together quickly after brushing. I've stripped some of the dead hair already and its a bit better but its still quite clumpy and there is still alot of the wooly washed out fur.
http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j93/samtrotter/dscf0978new.jpgThe back of his back legs. I think that this is ok, there isn't any of the washed out wooly fur on the back of his legs.
http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j93/samtrotter/dscf09713.jpgHis front legs. I think these are nice - is that how they are supposed to look? He has lots of feather on the back of them.
http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j93/samtrotter/DSCF0980-1.jpgI removed alot of dead hair from all over his body using the comb and rubberband. It all came away easily and it didn't trouble Barney at all in fact he fell asleep. Does that mean it was ready to come out?
I could have removed more as it was still coming away, but I was worried about over doing it, should I continue until it stops coming out or should I leave it for a while?
Should the front and side of his back leg be like his front leg or should it be short like say my Labs, but with feathering at the back?
I'm still waiting for a date for my grooming course, so in the meantime I wanted to tidy him up as he had so much washed out wooly hair, which I assumed was dead hair, is that right? I've trim round his paws too when they get long. Are these things ok to be doing, and should I be doing anything else other than brushing every day?
Hope thats not too many questions.
