Ok so I groomed Eli today and set the outline for his new clip. I think it turned out pretty well for my first attemp at the lion clip. I still have to grow his ears back, his tail pompon and of course more coat.

My husand really wants Eli to have a more manly/male looking clip. Plus Eli wears a full coat better then anything else I have done. Well, here's Eli is in his new clip.

LoL, I keep threatening my hubby with that. Mwahahah, and Jazz is cream so I could dye her mane and tail my little pony style. OMG!!! I could turn her itno Pinkie Pie... my very very most favorite my little pony. I think I'll tell him thats what I'm gonna do if he doesn't quit his griping about Jazz's current style.

Jenn, I would just like to say - I HATE YOU!! LoL, no just kiddning. I am a little jealous though that Jazz's cut didn't come out quite that nice. Maybe Eli has more hair than she does... ? then again maybe he wasn't a but head for being scissored like she was either. Either way that looks great. I can't wait for Tuesday when I can take her back to the salon and work on her a little more. I purposedly didn't bring my tools home with me this weekend because I knew if I did I would either scew around with her all weekend to the point of ruining the pattern OR I would clip it all off without giving it a change to grow on me. I'm starting to like it more and more now though.... except he crappy scissor work... I can do better than that and it's driving me INSANE looking at it.

great job Sting is so Cute !!!!!!!!!, I think if you shave Eli's tail down the same length as his back end it should look a little better. something about that little puff ball looks weird to me lol

Oh believe me, Im NOT clipping the tail down! lol He would look silly in a lion clip with a clipped down tail. His tail may not look ideal now, but it grow's quickly and eventually the look will be achieved. I just wish Eli didn't have a stub for a tail. I took him to the doc that we always had our Amstaff's ear's cropped and found out he did NOT know how to dock a Poodle tail. Errrr!
