Pile of Kittens: Apr 23, 2005; Why does everything STILL smell like pussy?

Thanks for the advice. My roommate owns the house and didn't want dog hair in the drains (I know, but try telling him that), or I would have given the new guy a nice warm shampooing.

Your body hair is longer unless you're in the military :psyduck:

You can also buy a camping shower so you can hose him down outside without it being icy loving cold. I learned this from being a carriage driver - you can't put a horse in the tub to shampoo, but you definitely have to do it in the winter.

Wish I could show you pictures of that one girl's dog, he literally had chunks out of his fur, like down to the skin. Don't know why she even tried showing him. But that is a different story for a different thread.

I'm not sure how this could be a story for a different thread, since this is the grooming thread in PI in Something Awful on the INTERNET.

Has anyone here used a clippervac? I was thinking about investing in one.

They use a clippervac for the sailors on a local Navy base, and it seems to cope with human hair without clogging or being a pain. I asked the lady and she said that it wasn't legal to use one at a legit salon, but that since this was a "barber shop" for personal grooming only, they weren't subject to such laws. :patriot:

Anyway, what I'm saying is that yes, clippervacs probably have improved significantly since SolanaSkyes had one.

edit: Hdip, I fixed your post the only way I could, which was by deleting the attachment from it. Instead of using the attachment feature, I recommend you use the [timg] tag.

(Oh god if I press too hard I am going to cut these dog's dangly bits)

I don't see why this is a problem. How much does the salon charge for neutering, anyway?

One of the bagels I live with keeps staring at his butt like it's possessed. We think it means his anal glands need expressing. I know that this is technically possible, but how unpleasant is it for the average civilian to attempt?

keep your mouth closed and your head away from dog-rear end-not-ok.

My big problem was that I had problems with locating the anal glands at first. Do do it in the tub. It takes practice but I promise you will be able to find your pastry-based dog's anal glands.

Well it helps that bagels only have the one big hole in the middle :V

Oh lovely, just in time for winter too. This is the time of year I stop shaving my head for thermal reasons... what the gently caress was she thinking?

Ha, I'd be blowing up her facebook with comments on how dissatisfied you are with how she ruined your dog's coat. Let anyone who follows her page see what the owners think of the job she did.

Seriously. Everyone needs feedback to get better, and she needs to get a lot better in a hurry.

My co-worker and manager needed me to help them with a cat they were shaving. The cat was NOT happy about it and had already pissed everywhere so they needed another person to hold her. This was not even a long-haired cat. I felt beyond awful forcing this terrified cat to hold still while my co-worker shaved her. They got her mostly done before they said "gently caress it, this is too stressful for the cat (and us)" and quit. I will give the cat props, though, for recovering very well. As soon as she was on the ground she was like "okay, now that that's over, where's the food?" Very sweet cat. Very dumb owner.

what... the gently caress? Was there any reason given for this cat needing to be shaved?
