and i need support and assistance in telling the groomer what I want done.
Temperance is an almost 7 month black standard and i'm taking her in for her first full groom on thursday. She's starting into a bit of her coat change and it's pretty hot here too. (high 80s lately).
so i guess it's time.
I"ve posted on this here http://www.poodleforum.com/9-poodle-grooming/7491-help-me-decide-good-look-temperance.html and i love poppy's look (and poodle lovers females bell bottoms!)
I am having mourning over losing her puppy coat, but she's so hot and I know that. and she loves playing outside and we don't stay inside in ac here.
I am leaning towards either a bikini or a modified hcc with a really, really short jacket. (this is based on a pic i've seen on flickr of a dog called bambi and i love that look and if not this time, then we'll move towards that).. or is it something that would work with a puppy and coat change???? here's the link to the pic: Bambi on Flickr - Photo Sharing!
i've posted this pic before, but you can see what her coat is now
i don't want to go too short ... so i'd love you all to help me let the groomer know what i want/need. length wise. definitely short face and feet tho.
i do NOT want her ears trimmed (maybe inside cleaned) i do NOT want her topnot cut as i'd love it to grow out. but i can understand trying to keep it out of her eyes. we're not going for a show coat ... i just like the top long!
the reason i'm a bit worrywart is my sister took her spoo baby to have fft and the groomer trimmed her ear length and her top not some. she was really upset and she'd said not to.
anyway, i have to step away from computer for a bit, but please help me work on how to word this. she's a really nice woman and has done my cairns for years and she does breed standards so is familar with them
and if i'm being melodramatic, just say so.
in a nice way :wacko:
