🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ You just keep it short 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

I am a Cockapoo owner, who doesn’t brush their dog every day…

I know!!!! Omg!!!! Practice what you preach woman!!

But wait, here’s why:

I don’t have time/energy 🤷‍♀️

I bloody love my Lenny!!! He’s amazing! But at Lovemud HQ we have a busy life/house, and I live in a permanent state of desiring a nap!

I love him long, fluffy and teddy beary, but that takes…

DAILY TIME & COMMITMENT!!!

“My mummy laydee is a lazy moo head…”
Lenny Lovemud

⭐️⭐️So I keep it simple:⭐️⭐️

Lenny is kept short on the body (6mm, prob drop to a #7 in summer, if it ever arrives!), inside the back legs, hygiene, tummy, under ear & extended armpits are all cleared with a #10.

🤷‍♀️ Less length = less knotting! 🤷‍♀️

I do leave the face, tail and (outside) ears a little longer. I probably check these areas for tangles every day during our essential evening cwtch, and brush them (and the rest of him as he starts growing) once a week.

BUT…

If you DO want your dog fluffy/long/teddy beary…

🧸YOU WILL NEED TO BRUSH EVERY DAY!!!🧸

NB: If you’ve kept your dog long and floofy, but haven’t brushed it in 2 months… please don’t expect your groomer to achieve the stunning floofy style you desire in 2 hours (or any duration!) - the only option for a tangled/matted coat (in line with Section 9 of the Animal Welfare Act), is to clip that tangled coat off super short, and start again!

“And I barks for all da floofs, when I says we donts like bein’ clipped offs super short suddenlys… it feelses weird an we lookses like plucked clucky chicken fings… 🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓” Lenny Lovemud

One thing to remember… short, long, somewhere in between… it’s the owners job to maintain and the groomers job to style!

Look after ya floofs people!!!

Toby 🥹
Toby went to the specialist referral centre yesterday and has had LOADS of scans, tests etc….he is still hospitalised and will be for a while.

So far, it’s sadly looking like lymphoma of the gut, OR an extreme case of IBD that has gone on so long, it’s pushed his body to the limits and his organs are now failing. We can’t know for sure without taking biopsies of his gut and he isn’t strong enough for this.

The main issue is his kidneys. They are currently failing.

So, whilst we await other test results to come through, we are going to continue to treat Toby and if he responds hugely, we will know it’s IBD as apposed to lymphoma. If there is no improvement, and he cannot stay stable off fluids, we will have no choice but to let him go. He drops badly when he comes off fluids.
- IF it’s IBD , we will see improvement and fast…. But the damage may be too much for his organs 😩

He’s bright, eating, enjoying a cuddle, and being a seriously lovely gent. That makes it all worse!!

But as you know, where there is any hope, and no suffering - we fight. He’s SUCH a gorgeous chap. He really is.

Keep going Toby. We love you! ❤️
