Maddie is a Soft Coated Wheaton. She has some really nice hair to work with, she likes being groomed.The scissor work took about 2 hours, but I tell you I am really proud of her. She used to try and bite but the last few times she has been awesome. She was about 5 inches long and owners always get hand scissor trim. They buy the conditioner and that really helps. The owners are great and understand how long it takes to do this cut.
