DANDRUFF

[Shamandra]

HI GUYS MY KEELYN HAS THIS BLACK SORT OF DANDRUFF ONLY IN HIS HEAD AREA. THE VET SAYS ITS NOT FLEAS BUT DANDRUFF AND RECOMMENDS THAT A GOOD VISIT TO THE GROOMER WILL DO THE TRICK. JUST OUT OF CURIOSITY I JUST WONDER IF ANY ONE ELSE HAS NOTICED THIS ON THEIR BABIES. ITS ONLY ON HIS SMALL HEAD, NO WHERE ELSE AS I RUB HIM DOWN EVERYNIGHT AND HAVE EVEN TAKEN ONE OUT AND TRIED TO LOOK AT IT BUT ITS SO SO SMALL. SO I JUST WONDERED IF ANYONE ELSE HAS NOTICED THIS EVER ON YOUR BABIES. THANKS IN ADVANCE. HAVE A GOOD ONE GUYS.

Sorry, my little Teddy doesn't have anything of the sort, so I won't be much help.

[Bailey]

sorry no help here either.

[brenlynn]

yeah, roxy has never had any dandruff problem of any kind.

[Shamandra]

well all he needed was a good grooming apparantly it was just something that he'd gotten into.
Thanks Guys

Keelyn is so pretty... I wish Cash had more of that red coloring.  Seems he looses a bit more with every hair cut.    Just so Cash doesn't have hurt feelings I should probably add that I think he's a stud regardless. 

[Shamandra]

Aww thanks Cash is a stud. Yes Keelyns coat is beautiful though, I thought It was going to shed but I haven't had a problem yet. Wish I could give Cash some of Keelyns hair though lol b/c it grows very very fast. Good Day!

[Cash]

I know, their hair does grow so fast!  I've been keeping Cash's hair short for ease on my end, but he needs a hair cut once a month.  I'm getting good practice though as I'm doing it myself.

[Bailey]

wish i was as brave as you..bailey needs a haircut every month but I'm not sure about doing it myself...too scared i'll hurt her.....she does stand still for baths...so maybe i'll give it a try...after this next cut..lol...

[Cash]

Well I figured it was worth buying a $40 clippers as that would be the cost of one haircut.  I was not afraid of hurting him, just making him goofy looking.    He too stands very well for me... with the exception of wanting to sit from time to time.  Like with his brushing though I started out trimming him with treats.  If you do give it a try I'm sure you'll have moments of doubt, but it does get easier.  I think the 1st hair cut actually took me a week as I was noticing spots I didn't get well and would redo.  Good luck if you decide to give it a try.. you'll save almost $500/year if you do!

I'm really tempted...but afraid if i mess up hubby & daughter will not be too happy with me....

Yeh Toby has had dandruff in the past but it has been white not black. I have found that I just have to keep the conditioner up on his hair and that keeps the moisture up on his skin so I son't have the problem mushc any more.

[Cash]

I hear you, but I can promise you that you'll be your worst critic.  It took some getting used to.  I've had him since March and there are still some cuts that I don't like right off the bat, but they always grow on me.. how can you think something you love so much can possibly be ugly? 

[Bailey]

I'd love to trim her face..I don't mind her hair growing longer all over her body....but i don't want her hair in her eyes and my daughter hates how she looks with longer hair on the sides of her mouth  so i'd like to cut that as well..
