Shelter in Place Funny Haircuts
I had to trim Reggie's face. Here in Tennessee, the groomers are closed due to the virus. He would look okay, except I cut him bald just behind both eyebrows. I told him I gave him racing stripes. I'll post pics soon.

Re: Shelter in Place Funny Haircuts
Oh dear lol... there have been some rather funny photos of first time groomers on facebook. I think it's brilliant that people are having a go to keep their schnauzers comfortable. I think a lot of schnauzers might be happy when their groomer is allowed to open again. I gave my OH a haircut last week using Otto's clippers. He still has ears.

Re: Shelter in Place Funny Haircuts
Poor Jasper has one bald stripe on his cheek. I didn't check the setting before clipping yesterday and it was on shortest setting Fortunately its not that visible from 2m and he doesn't care anyway

Re: Shelter in Place Funny Haircuts
I have done that before on Oscar did ears on No 10 and then went straight to back right down the middle, a bit of a reverse mohican. Did Otto's rear yesterday and I think I need glasses. One side is not a straight line and I have taken too much off. I didn't think anyone would notice but OH said "what have you done to his bottom". . It's really annoying because when walking it is the bit I see all the time.

Re: Shelter in Place Funny Haircuts
I bumped in to Pepper last night (she's a 10 month mini) and she had just been home groomed for the first time as the groomers are all closed. I was still able to recognise her from 50m or so away as a schnauzer and knew who she was and for a first attempt it wasn't at all bad though I would have tried to have the groomer closed down if it had been a professional groom
I was minded, however, of Alison's saying - Never mind it'll grow back soon.

Re: Shelter in Place Funny Haircuts
It certainly does grow back but I always remind myself that a watched pot doesn't boil and this pot happens to be a bottom....
Joking aside, a small proportion are being clipped too closely and suffering from shaver burn and others have been cut. I bet the schnauzers can't wait for this to be over too and will go running into the arms of their professional groomers.

It would have to be really bad for my OH to notice I once trimmed an eyebrow way shorter than the other and he didn't notice. 3 days I waited before sorting it for him to notice, didnt happen

Re: Shelter in Place Funny Haircuts
Gino has been groomed every 6wks he’s due again in a couple week but of course next groom date has been cancelled my hubby is threatening to chop him not that we have any grooming tools I’ve said NO so think we will be falling out over it.

Julie thanks will do, will see how it goes .....but we don’t have grooming tools it would just be with ordinary scissors that he would use.
