In my household, grooming behavior is VERY important! Grooming can be very intensive for these guys, thanks to their thick, water resistant coat.
Mance is incredibly solid from grooming. From bathing, to blow drying, to nail time, he takes it all in stride and isn't bothered at all.
Here he is on the table getting blow dried. He is so unbothered he's just chilling, without being hooked to the grooming table. Patient and sweet, he loves the treats and praise that he gets.
I'll be uploading a short video of his behavior getting his neck blown out in a minute. I'll give you a hint: he is totally unbothered!
If you're in the area, you can catch us in Richmond, IN on March 1 and 2 as we go into the show ring for the first time as a Champion, and in the Rally-Obedience ring for his first sports trial!
