I'll see if I can get some tips from my Ma for ya

To pay someone to do it, you're looking at around the $50 mark I think.

To be honest I have been told that best not to trim her for a while as her coat will settle into wooly ringlets BUT we will see how it develops I think.

Planning on getting some clippers - Number 1 all over? What ya reckon

Yeah, I'm not too sure what would happen with a poodle X coat. With poodles, it just keeps growing and growing, gets knotty and matted. I imagine spoodles are similar, as that's what stops them from giving allergic reactions - no shedding.

OK, I asked the Poodle Groomer Extraordinaire (AKA my Mummy) and she said wait to see what happens with her coat first, then get her groomed professionally for the first time, then see if you can take it from there.

Maybe get her done professionally every second time until you've got the hang of it? You'll need good quality scissors and some clippers. Have a look on TM, you will probably get some good ones.

Poor lil Scruffster... Just rung V, she told me how to kill him quickly if he deteriorates.

Could be an interesting life lesson for lil monster though...

gee, I was JUST kidding!!

Yeah I will save that life lesson for another day...

HOWEVER! I have got SullyOne picking all his toys up and returning them to his room when finished cos I told them Dakota might eat them and that might make her die

what a bad bad mummy! Either way it is working and I have to say I was pretty nervy watching him play with his magnetix today...made sure those remained in their case and were put away nicely.

He is very very careful though - just loves his new friend. They are snuggled up in the lazy boy at the mo - she just wants to sleep - he is just happy she is sitting still and all floppy and cuddly...awwwwwwwwww
