By AM do you mean Ameraucana? If so, look for a pea comb.

It really shouldn't take that long at a groom shop but its the mass amount of dogs a shop has to do to pay their over head bills. I went Mobile so I could do one on one grooming, no crates. Sure it costs a little more for this specialty grooming but I am finding alot of people don't want their dogs sitting in crates for 6hrs waiting their turn to get groomed. Usually a poodle mix takes me about 2hrs depending on the type of groom, fluffy or short etc. Drying the coat does take a while depending on the length of coat the dog has but if the dog is matted or long coat then yes that takes longer too.

I much prefer mobile - I use a mobile vet, and it is much less stress for the animals, especially the cats! I'd practically need leather gloves to get them in their crates and then they would meow pathetically and pee in the crate, and get the runs after. Now the vet just walks in, the cats walk up and greet him, he does an exam and gives them their shots and they don't even flinch! The dogs are easier. The groomer and vet always complimented me on how calm and well behaved Shasta is. I never took her for formal training, and she is only the second dog I've owned. The first one came trained and has perfect behavior. Shasta simply copies her, and I did get The Monks of Newskeet and followed that with her. I think it helps that she is a smart breed, though we have not quite mastered "stay". I bought the shaver because I was tired of only being able to have Shasta shaved when our finances are not a struggle, and that is only 3 months out of the year! That and she always has to pee so bad that she sits at the door and whines when I pick her up at the groomer. She pulls me to the nearest dirt-patch when she get out of there. It is about the only time she'll pull at her leash.

I have a French Black Copper Maran for rooster I am trying to find a home for. I have no idea what line, but he is purebred, from a local breeder, and has feathered feet. He is a beautiful boy, just beginning to crow - which is why I need to get rid of him (no roosters in my neighborhood)

He is a sweety - VERY friendly. He was crowing like crazy this morning, so I need him to go soon! I live in Everett. You can see pics of him on my Craigslist posting: http://seattle.craigslist.org/sno/grd/2521919132.html.

Was so nice to meet Velvett and his DW yesterday. Very nice people. Hope all goes well with his new fence and coyote invaders!

Thanks Rustler. You're the best!

Perfecto and if by chance they happen to be the taller ones that is even more better!

Now I just have to figure how to get them here.
