Bronte needed a hair cut. For the first time I thought it would be cheaper and easier if I did the job myself. It might have been cheaper to buy the clippers and do it myself in the long run, but easier No Way. It started off with me gingerly cutting around his eyes and ears. It was so stressful worring that I might cut him. Finally I felt brave enough to drag out the 5lb. clippers. Bouvier coats come off like a sheeps fleece so it needs to be shaved and peeled back all in one piece. So I began ever so carefully worring all the time. About a half hour in Bronte looked up at me as if to say that he had had enough. So he finally stretched out his neck for me to cut and then his leg. He continued to show me what to do next and grew impatient when I took to long on one spot or another. He never once nipped or complained. I'm glad that some days the dog is smarter than I am.

He is SO cute! Good for you for having the patience to do the clipping your self! You should start your own little beauty shop!
