Krystie, so the coat thing is the same with my Llasa Apso X ****zu? If so, DAMMIT - because her coat is a TOTAL PITA. The first few times she was groomed they just scissor cut it and her coat was nice and smooth, but after a horrible muddy winter with her the new groomer offered to just clip her and I just thought it would be easier .

I mean her coat is awesome for its "unstainability". She could roll about in black mountain mud and look like a drowned rat, but as soon as it dried and she shook off - her coat looked brand new! Its was terrible for the floors though.

I feel terrible, she is so long overdue for grooming, she has dreadful dreadlocks and you can hardly see her face. I clean her up a bit when I can but its not enough. She likes to look pretty but you can't give her a cuddle she is do whiffy. Bills keep coming in and it keeps getting put back

I'm such a bad fur mama
