I did the same to my 17year old lab X and she loved it every year I did it no matter what she looked she looked like then she would try and drink every river and stream she got into ) :x

Bet they appreciated that.

Just out of curiosity, does it affect the texture of their coats when it grows back? I know once you've clipped a Mini Schnauzer, the rough wiry coat is lost and a soft fluffy one grows back in its place. Just wondered if this was only true for short wirehaired type dogs or other too?

Ask me in a few weeks Nicola! At the moment they all feel quite 'fluffy' with soft coats, but there are coarser 'cat' hairs growing through. Thinking about it, I removed 5 years of growth off Basil, so I dont know how long its going to take for him to get back to his ragged look!

One thing I have noticed though, is that I have FAR less hoovering to do!!!!!!!
