Your just showin off your hideously talented skills
I have to tell you, I hate, hate hate doing poodles and bichons and they don't look like that when I'm done
I did a westi today, his first cut (he looked like a little ragga muffin) his owner was crying when I took him home (a fella) he loves his hair do (nowt spesh) but looked like a propper westi
I love doing cockers, westis and shnauzers, prob cos I'm good at them, but hate the fluffies
Thanks guys - he was feeling rather proud of himself that day. That was about two weeks ago and he's desperate for a hair do already!
awww, cayla - that's far too kind of you to say so. My poodles are still a work in progress. I failed my first attempt at a mock exam with this little lady:
This is Tia, she belongs to my friend - she's related to Merlin as she's his great auntie (and the famous "Rodney's" litter mate). Tia is a champion in her own right, which makes her a very easy model (stands like a statue, the perfect coat to work with - just a little greyer and heavier than when she was showing, but she's getting on these days).
I failed by 7 marks on my mock with her - so am probably going to use a schnauzer instead, as my schnauzers are more in my comfort zone (especially for timing).
But I do really like Merli with his ears and tail clipped shorter
