handsome henry !
Henry’s lives in Chorley, Lancashire with his family and housemate Rufus – a gorgeous Chocolate Labrador.
Henry’s still only a youngster at 20 months. RagaMuffins (a variant of the Ragdoll) don’t mature until they’re around 4-5 years old. However, it’s fair to say that Henry is quite a hefty boy already at around 8-9kg (18-20lb).
Both he and mum look after his coat really well, but Henry’s not that keen on being brushed around his rear quarters or underneath and a few small mats had developed.
We set about the session and it was obvious that Henry had other plans for the afternoon ! He wasn’t afraid at all (after greeting us with a face rub !), but he likes to be in charge and is quite stubborn with it. He has his weight on his side and did his best to end the session. Not a bad bone in his body – just determined !
Anyhow, we removed the areas in question and brushed out the rest of this coat. We know that he’s thankful now – indeed right after the session he went and sat outside the front of his house surveying all that was going on, and catching up on what he’d missed. He’s a character by all accounts and all the neighbours know him. In fact, when the trick or treaters call at Halloween, he’s the one who gives them a fright by jumping out on them from the hedge ! Hehe !
A few days after the session, mum Marie said
“Thanks very much for grooming Henry you have done a great job, I gave him a brush on Thursday and it was so much easier x”
Fab ! Nice meeting you, Henry !
