Buzz-ster

Last month I spent $45 on a haircut for Buster plus the additional $8 tip. After examining him and trying to figure the technique and look, I finally convinced myself that as an adult, I was fully capable of duplicating this look. A week ago I purchased a pair of $40 pet clippers from amazon.com and watched the instructional DVD on cutting your pet's hair.

After deciding I didn't need to watch the DVD because it was for beginners and I am so advanced in the skill of puppy hair cutting, I replaced the DVD with a jamming CD and plopped Buster onto the bathroom counter. There, I skillfully attached the 1/8" clip guard out of the 4 guards onto the clipper head. Carefully and lovingly, I turned on the clippers and let Buster get adjusted to the sound so he knew it wasn't going to hurt him. Everything at this point was going great. Placing the clipper head at the base of his butt, I slowly started gliding upwards towards the base of his back. This was easy.

After using my fingers to brush away the freshly cut fur, I noticed I could see his skin. Apparently, I had cut too short and at this point I was already commited to the 1/8" guard... so... I finished balding my doggy giving him the brazilian look which is so popular these days. So here, for your pleasure, is my brazilian-cut Buzz-ster.
