Extreme Makeover

One thing we love about our dog Cuddles is that she does not shed. But because of that, her hair grows pretty long. We have done different things in the past like used a normal hair cutting buzzers or just taking out a pair of scissors and start cutting. The problem with using a normal hair cutting buzzers is that her hair is so thick the buzzers will always clog up and it also seems to hurt her as it pulls at her hair. When using a pair of scissors it is hard to get a consistent cut. So a couple of days ago we took the plunge and bought a dog hair cutting clippers. The one we bought came with a DVD we can watch to get pointers on different methods of cutting a dog's hair. We will enjoy watching it but we were too anxious to try out our new little toy to watch the DVD. Although Cuddles doesn't like to get her hair cut it did seem like this time it was a little less traumatic then usual. So the dog clippers did go through her hair so much nicer then the normal clippers. Cuddles hair was pretty long so Ruth and I worked at it for a little while. She looks like she is half the dog she used to be with all that fluffy fur gone. She is now ready for the warmer weather to hit. So heat wave, we are ready for you!
