Emmie Lou, I keep him about the same length all year round...a wee bit shorter than he is now, and just get all the undercoat I can out of him. He just stays indoors in the AC, like me in the summer months. He's really holding on to the undercoat lately, since it's been a cold winter in FL.
Terri, he's 5.5yrs. old already...can't believe it myself.
