Rescue dog advice please.

Thats the thing with Springers - its like having a child with ADHD! then all of a sudden they go all OAP on you!!! they dont want to run around and YOU feel like they are the parent! They go all mature on you!

Thank you all for your lovely comment's.:D. to be fair though having more than one is probly easier, They burn off alot of energy on each other:rotfl:. I've got a very calm lab who does try and control them:D. I don't think he'll be as bad as i thought he'd be, Just given him a good brush all over with no trouble. Just be glad to get rid of the matts and start again:)

Well all that worry was for nothing, He was as good as gold:D.

The groomer was fantastic with him. His so much more comfortable his running around like a puppy now:beer:. Been out for a nice wonder round the wood's. He'll be brushed daily from now on as part of his cuddle time like the other's:D

Blesss you. What a lucky boy to find a lovely home at his age. They always look and feel so much younger and livelier when they have had a good clean up. Its surprising though that the rescue didnt do that for him.

We picked him up from the owner's, The rescue try to keep them at home until a new owner can be found. Yeah spose it's the same as us we feel better for a nice hair cut don't we:D
