|

Sooo many thanks to Louise for her patience in clipping the impossible coat that Ella had. She's just as beautiful as ever. And now her hair is less matted I've been able to brush her (with minimal resistance) and even get a coat on her - well now she has no hair she needs a coat. See pics below:

She's just gorgeous isn't she?
As Janis says - it's amazing what a difference a hair cut makes and I am LOVING the coat!!!! _________________ Staffies are my life! Visit us at www.staffies.co.uk |

Yes everyone she is gorgeous
It's been like a reverse Samson effect with the hair cut she is even MORE energetic than before and constantly wants to play. (Which I'm loving ). She's being much more friendly to people too - although still reluctant around dogs. I was actually really pleased with her at the class last night that she didn't snap at any of the other dogs - progress indeed.
Obviously she wasn't comfortable with the matted hair, but I wasn't reading all the signs right . Still better late than never.
We're off to England this weekend to see my parents, so we'll see how she gets on in the car... _________________ Home is where the dog is |

Keep at it Vikki - you can ONLY read the signs by learning and getting to know your dog, it takes time that's all
It's a very poor owner that doesn't even try so I'm sure she recognises how lucky she is to have you _________________ Staffies are my life! Visit us at www.staffies.co.uk |
