Clip Clip

Well, we finally got Bailey in for a real haircut. As you can see, it's pretty much shaved like a schnauzer. We asked around and decided to try a local groomer place instead of PetSmart. Twice we have taken her to PetSmart, and they said she wouldn't sit still enough to get a haircut.

We called up the new place on Friday morning, and they asked if we could bring her in within the next 10 minutes. Off Jen went. They said it would probably take 3-4 hours, which we expected, but they called us in 2 hours. She had the usual stuff, shampoo, cut, clean, nails clipped, etc. And it didn't cost a fortune; it was actually cheaper than Petsmart. The amazing thing is we are so surprised how soft she feels even though she has some pretty short hair. The staff said she was fine during the whole process. Even more surprising is the bandana lasted for 2 days on Bailey before she chewed it off.

The first night Jen decided Bailey was probably cold, and she threw a small towel on her as a blanket. We have also gone down the crazy dog owner's path and get her a sweater to wear from time to time. I think it's rather silly, but I'm in the minority on this one.

Also, you can see one of Bailey's favorite things to do... sunbathe. She sure does act like a cat. She gets out there, all spread out, sticking her legs up in the air, soaking in the sun. She actually sleeps sometimes with all 4 legs up in the air just to catch some rays. And she follows the sunshine across the back yard, moving when the shade gets to her.
