Lil Pup Is Scared Of Clippers

Taken from scaredycut.com
I don't know about you, but I feel pretty confident in trimming my little dog's hair on my own.  He is a Maltese / Shih Tzu mix and needs regular grooming, but he has a love hate relationship with clippers.  Some days he is okay and others he is like wrestling a 20-armed monkey.  I'm really lucky that he's not a biter!

My sweet Bailey pup - age 2
I was camping on facebook one day and saw an add in the ads column for a product called Scaredy Cut.   Click to learn about Scaredy Cut   It looked easy enough so I ordered one.  Scaredy Cut is a good pair of scissors with a clipper guard attached with simple instructions.

I have been using it now for a few months and I love it!
 My pup doesn't shy away from it and he doesn't show any fear or hesitation whatsoever when I trim his hair now.  I'm definitely not an expert and he's definitely not a show dog, but he is super cute.

Sweet Puppy Diapers, Grandma!

January 2012 I was blessed with a rescue dog who was already two years old, had been found on the streets, and was in horrible shape.  He is a beautiful Maltese/Shih Tzu mix and I love him dearly.  It took me several months to figure out that he thought the floor towel was his bathroom spot and he had a lot of trouble holding it for more than a couple of hours.

This sweet baby would use the training pads if I put them on the floor, but then there were times when he just couldn't make it that far.  He needed a little extra help and some brilliant person out there made belly bands.

I go to Target and get their Up & Up brand of bladder control pads $3 for a package of 30 and then I cut them in half (because he's so little).  Just place it in his little belly band and he's good.

What lengths have you gone for your fur babies?
