Good point. I was going to take her on Thursday, but we will put that off for now. Not sure how I'd shave minimally lol. She has the most on her chest and inside her front legs.

Wondering what ever happened with Deska? I have a not quite two year old sheltie that I'm pretty sure is going to be diagnosed with elbow displasia tomorrow :(
