gentle alfie
Say a big Hi to Alfie !!
Alfie is 15 years old – although you’d never guess from looking at him – and he hangs out in Thornton Cleveleys, Lancashire.
Alfie hasn’t been professionally groomed before. Mum has always been able to keep on top of his long coat – but this year the mats had crept up around the sides and rear quarters. We weren’t sure how Alfie was going to interact in the session. However, we needed have had any apprehension. Alfie very quickly realised that the clippers didn’t hurt. Also, Alfie was able to tolerate quite a harsh combing, so we were able to save a substantial chunk of his coat.
Alfie is such a gentle, loving boy and he spent time during the session with is nose nuzzled under our armpit, while we worked around his rear quarters. It was a real comfort for him.
A few days after the session, mum Jane told us :
“A few days after the session, mum Jane told us : “I’m very pleased with what you did with Alfie and he reacted much better than I expected. His coat is miles better and his is happy for me to brush him again. Thanks Jane x””
Such a good boy Alfie … and it was so nice meeting up with you chick !
