Today Nova got her first serious haircut. She had a great introduction to grooming while still living with her breeder. All the puppies had their nails cut and hair trimmed on a regular basis from the time they were very young. I've continued that with Nova, putting her on the grooming table every few days for nail trims, ear cleaning, minimal clipping and brushing. By the time we got to her first major haircut today she was pretty accustomed to all kinds of grooming.
We started this morning with a brushing, then a bath and blow dry. Then she took a little nap. After lunch I brushed her again, then got to work on the haircut. Except for a little silliness, she was very well behaved during her haircut, which took about an hour.

In case you can't tell much difference, here she is with the hair I removed. I think we could build another dog!
