Hi all,

Well due to circumstances at home and my husband being made redundant, I decided to take it on board to groom my boys instead of sending them to the professionals and paying £50 for the pair of them......

I have only done Teddy today as it took 2 hours......and the clippers were very tired and a tad warm by the end of the session.....so Tyler will be done tomorrow but in the meantime I thought I would post a before and after picture of Teddy Doodle so you guys could see how I did.

Here goes......................Don't laugh......... :?

BEFORE

AFTER

Should I do Tyler tomorrow???????????

aWWWWWWWWWWWW THANKS guys......I really enjoyed doing it with help with holding Ted from my Hubby.....was a little nervous....but he does look cute to me...even if he doesn't look like a doodle anymore..lol

Tomorrow is Tyler's turn and am verrryyy nervous as he has a very different coat and I think any mistakes will really look bad on him........but he isn't a nutter like teddy so hopefully he will just stand for me and I can take my time.....The Buzzy things are on charge now out of sight of Tyler.....


If only he knew what was coming....!!!!!! lol

This may sound crazy but why dont you do a course? If you are unemployed (or even if you are not and have time) you may be able to get a course payed for and maybe start a mobile service! The job looks good and I know someone who has done this and even got a gov. grant to open a premesis! Worth a thought, sometimes you have to be bold, she did and is doing very nicely thank you! noticed her 4x4 has now a custom "posh paws" logo!!!

All the best
