Ok Lavender is my white angora, her favortie occupation has always been to dig holes and role in the dirt! Don't ask me why as i don't know! So over the years i have got used to clipping her and attemting to keep her clean. Because my buns are outdoor all the time evn in winter over the winter months i don't do as much grooming as tehy need there fur to keep them warm. Thsi works well with all the other buns but lavender! She gets filthy and all matted on her tail, even now after she has had several clips and grooms her tail is matted! No other part of her just her tail, if i clip her tail off then the base of it and the skin is exposed what on earth do i do with it?????
