[RC] Clipping Australian Shepherds-offtopic:) - Jerry & Susan Milam

I know this really doesn't pertain to endurance, but I know some of you have
aussies.

My guy is a totally outside mut now and he is always in our creek and briars
etc and he is really a tangled mess. I am always clipping something out of
his fur. Would it be OK to trim the length of his hair a bit so it doesn't
get so tangled up? I was thinking of leaving it only a couple of inches and
that would still give him insect protection and it should grow out by
winter.

TIA,

Susan and Ranger


============================================================
Every horse can be taught to walk faster than you think.  It is one of the
most important qualities of a good riding horse.  Some have it naturally,
others need to learn. On the other hand, if you are riding a tired horse,
an easy jog is more efficient, covers more groumnd with less effort.  (it's
the rebound effect of the two beat trot)
