Hey Mups, are they purebred Bedington Terriers you have?
I like their natural shaggy look you have them in.
Hi Bratti, yes there are all pure bred Beddies, but their coats still vary quite a lot.
The youngest little brownish colour one - Gertie, her coat is like soft baby hair and not very thick at all, but the oldies one's is so dense, it is like very thick cotton wool. The others are all somewhere in between.
I don't like the 'show trims' with the shaved tails etc, hence my lot's rather neglected look.

Then we got a chihuahua and my goodness try and find someone to care for her, we just started taking them with us. Made more sense anyway as I used to worry all the time about them anyway.

At the moment we have small lap dogs but they aren’t groomed in their breeders cuts. They would pick up so many burrs and be so tangled, not that they aren’t now but they have so much fun.
I really like dog lovers
They are a breed of their own.
