I've been doing all my own grooming on our doodle since she was a puppy. I feel confident everywhere except around her. Muzzle cuz I'm not really good with scissors. I mainly rely on doing everything with different guards and the trimmer.

I like to keep around shape around her muzzle as opposed to an oblong flatter look that I see on a lot of Doodles. Do you think I should let those hairs on the upper part of her muzzle grow out and stay long so that it doesn't stay as poofy or should I be grooming the top of it with scissors to keep it shorter around that area?

100 year old home. Wondering why these bricks are black like soot. Was wrapped in this foil paper. Wood framing and lathe was right up against it.

Is it okay to have framing right beside a chimney? We have a wood oil furnace and mainly heat with firewood. I know there is a fairly new sleeve inside the chimney.

When I'm finishing this space do I need to wrap it back up in a similar product? Links to what to use?
