Is this sort of like born under a bad sign? Some are born with Bad Hair Days (me included) and some just get it from life.
Shoshi just was born with that wild, unruly look and no matter what you do, it's her and that's quite okay. It gives her character.
Abigail got a bad hair day due to pups but that is recoverable. It eventually grows back and looks great but Shoshi - it is what it is and that's okay with us.
It's supposed to be another scorcher - way too hot for outside things other than early today and later tonight but they say thunderstorms are coming. I love the clean air after a rip roaring storm but Shoshi hates wet feet. She adores the snow but get me out of that wet grass, will ya?
She lifts her feet as if you had placed her in the most disgusting stuff - going oooh but Mommy you know I do not like wet grass. But we persist and we carry her down to make sure she goes.
That's the key - consistency despite work or them liking it or not. She still runs for under the tree where there is dirt but she knows she must get her feet wet. hehehehe
