Happy Birthday you gorgeous boy :x :YMPARTY: He's a stunner, but you don't need telling that :))

Off topic I notice you shave further up the neck passed the lions mane cowlick. I've seen other picture of standards like that but not minis. Any idea why ?

We recently have switched to raw feeding but prior to that Ruddi was on Arden Grange with some extras like sardines a couple of times a week etc

It is a style they often use in Europe to make the neck look longer and show off the front angulation. It doesn't suit every dog and was a bit of an experiment on my three :)
