Meet Melons ! Melons is a 2 year old Domestic Short Hair (DSH) who has been with her new mum and dad in Rochdale, Greater Manchester for going on a year now. Melons came from a rescue centre along with her housemate (littermate ?) and there’s not too much known about their previous life. Both girls were initially very timid – but are slowly adapting and coming out of their shells.
Although Melons coat is short, mum and dad report that it is very dense and shedding is a problem. Therefore, a clip was on the agenda today. Dad had already started to clip Melons’ back, so we took over. Not a conventional clip in that Melons has been left much coat around the shoulders and chest – with her lion mane running centrally down her tummy. This is now named the ‘Melons Clip’ and may become fashionable in 2015 !!
Melons is the most sweet little thing you can imagine and she was a good girl on the grooming table. She wasn’t in the least bit afraid of the clippers. In fact, she was watching what was going on !
As Melons’ coat is only short it will re-grow in no time, so mum is already hinting on the next clip ….
Well done Miss Melons !
