I talk about work every now and then and I thought I'd share one with you.
This fluffy over grown cotton ball is a Great Pyrenees. He's in for his annual shave down, yup you'll see. Oh, and for a dog his size I had to put 2 grooming tables together to have enough room for him to stand on.
It takes a while to do a dog like this, especially since he's soooo fluffy. So you have to pre shave them before the bath. No point in washing and drying (that's the big one) all this hair your just going to shave off, the only issue is that is sometimes hard to get through the hair because of dirt or an undercoat. Then the bath, after a nice wrestling match, me head to toe soaked, and the floor won't need to be mopped, you spend at least an hour drying him. After that I put him in a crate with a non-heated dryer. A few hours later, a lot of manuvering (grooming while kneeling, squatting, sitting on the floor, etc) you have this.
Not that great of a pic, but you get the idea.
