My clipping expedition last night....

[Lill]

Well Blue needed re-doing, so i set about re-doing his blanket/chaser clip and all he wanted to do the entire time it took me was to snuffle and try and eat my hat, my hair, my pockets, my sleeves, the clippers, the clipper leads and the lead rope!

How am i supposed to clip quickly when he is constantly in my face!

Silly horse!

Quite sweet but he wasn't helping much!

Then we did Saracen and because he's been allowed to grow a proper winter coat my GOD was he HAIRY!!!!!!

Think almost 2 inches long and so thick i thought it was going to bust the clippers!

Gave him a chaser clip and he looks so much smarter now

although could not get near his ears, so the line from his neck to halfway down his face is a bit um 'unique' but apart from that he looks quite good! Its SO hard to get straight lines in fur like that though

i tried so hard....

but they are a little wibbly in places

Sooooo now have got one more to do tonight - we've never clipped him before so no idea what he will be like!

And Holly to re-do tomorrow who is an angel to clip and just falls asleep

And then i'm done for another month PHEWW!!!

Gosh, I thought clipping one was a bit of a mission, and mine is an angel to clip, he just falls asleep.

I dont mind clipping, its just all those little hairs that seem to get everywhere that I hate.
