Apologies for the delayed reply. Daisy i...Hi Libby,<br />Apologies for the delayed reply. Daisy is really good about getting herself clean and shedding off her winter coat each year, but one of the main reasons I bought her was because she isn't nearly as fluffy as many Great Pyrenees I've seen.<br /><br />Marta, on the other hand, is a mess. :) By some miracle she looks nice and (almost) clean and fluffy in this photo, though it must be some trick of the light. She is in desperate need of being totally sheared.<br /><br />We've brought her to the groomer twice before (just transporting her for the 80 mile round trip is an ordeal in itself), and the last time took them five hours and cost a small fortune. Now she's worse because we skipped a year. I don't think the groomer could/would deal with her now. ;)<br /><br />We bought a set of pro animal clippers but haven't used them on her yet. I did cut a lot of her matted fur by hand. She's really only bad on 1/3 of her body - she's a tri-cross and it's like she literally has three sections of different coat.<br /><br />At this point I'm thinking we may have to use the big electric sheep shears on her. She did at least have her bangs trimmed since this photo was taken! :)Farmgirl Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851855517852917202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-39399516170331525012013-04-20T09:25:59.180-05:002013-04-20T09:25:59.180-05:00jeeez. that IS cute!

Do you do any grooming with these dogs (and if so, when do you find the time?!)or just let them go. We're in the bush and I'd love to be able to just leave ours the way she is. I also have collies; they definitely need twice a year grooming in a very understanding salon!Libby Dnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-78797269333047028512013-04-16T03:12:47.282-05:002013-04-16T03:12:47.282-05:00Such a sweet precious fur baby.

Also always wondered if you can play with the livestock duo, or are they really just tuned to the flock? ADORABLE picture!Caryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15236278932692169950noreply@blogger.com
