topic ~ Burrs ~ in Community Chat https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Burrs/m-p/151821#M67761 <P>About a week before Christmas I took my furbaby, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, to a groomer to have her all "prettied up." I usually do it, but I thought I'd give her and me a "treat." When she was done she was beautiful. Well, we went to my daughter's in VA - they have a llama farm, and sometime when I walked her she picked up several burrs, of course, they're right at the skin edge of her ears, thoroughly knotted in .... I'd say there are about 5-6. I've tried to work on them, but everytime I do she yelps. I hate having to take her back to the groomer to just have them taken out ... money is tight but I can't seem to do it myself. I walked her on her leash, but she apparently got them in their area of weeds, thistle, and tall grass.</P> <P>She's very sensitive to any type of combing, or trimming, and so she yelps. I never know if I've cut her or not, but I know I have not. If anyone has any other ideas, I'd really appreciate your input.</P> <P>Thanks,</P> <P>abby</P> Sat, 31 Dec 2011 17:39:02 GMT abbycat 2011-12-31T17:39:02Z ~ Burrs ~ https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Burrs/m-p/151821#M67761 <P>About a week before Christmas I took my furbaby, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, to a groomer to have her all "prettied up."
