It was with heavy hearts that Brad and I admitted that Teddy's fur had become so matted at the base that we had no choice but to clip him to almost skin. We hated doing it however the matting was at least a centimetre thick and we couldn't brush it out :-( We've had him clipped before and because he is so big it costs between $80 and $150 so we bit the bullet and bought our own pet clippers. Brad and I clipped him ourselves on Sunday night and we loved it, it gave me the same satisfaction as peeling sunburned skin, cool! Both of our backs were absolutely in agony afterwards but it was amazingly easy, never again will we pay someone else to do this job!
Teddy was unbelievably well behaved during the hour and a half that it took us, a few times he tried to get up, he hates his paws being touched at the best of times, but over all he was excellent, I am so proud of him. Unfortunately Teddy loses his good looks when he loses his fur, every bit of cuteness disappears and he looks like a skinny skinhead thug! Poor Teddy, his mummy still loves him!
love
