Well, how quickly a week goes by. Benny, our blind rescue, has now settled in with all the other dogs accepting him. Not really a visible difference between before and after grooming other than the mats being cut out. Almost hairless backside and a few other bald patches are all hidden by long hair. The other things which needed doing was the hair in the feet which needed trimming. I'm sure he now has firmer footing on tiles etc.

All the other dogs accept him now which is great progress and he has learned the house layout. Main trouble we have is he desperately wants to stay with me which isn't always practical. Walks are "interesting" and we have to train him to stay beside me. At present he wanders in all directions, keeping me on my toes to prevent him from wandering into things or the road.

The one thing we haven't done is taken a lot of photos however just a few. The final picture is where someone mentioned the word "livercake":
