doh! she'll be back before you know it, when our lab got runover and needed her leg clipped i bought some shampoo and cream that supposedly made it grow back quicker and help it look as if it hadn't been previously clipped. it worked a treat but i'm not sure weather it would do so well on a long coat can't for the life of me remember what it was called though

think it could have been, i'll see if i can find the tub in me grooming box. originaly bought it for one of the horses who's foal had been eating her tail, it was in a blue tub with a green? lid, this was about 3 years back though so if i do find it it will be full of mould and who knows what else

we used to have a wonderful hunt groom who knew so many of the 'old' witches brew rememdies - he is sadly no longer with us and took all his recipes to the grave with him. If he was still here he would have given me something for her

sea water is good the golden in my photos chewed through his hind leg when he got stressed on the ferry once and that is what we did swam him everyday in the sea - but it ruins the texture of the coat
