Messy Looks

It took me till tonight to get everyone brushed but you will see the non brushed look in the gallery. You see I had a very busy schedule so Nathan took photos (me too) and tried to take video (me too). It was a busy day. So Nathan took Adele up for a nap and well she panted and drove him crazy (what I do when they go into labour in a different room so he can get sleep. 

Then I tried to take a nap on the couch and well she did the same to me. Now she is chewing on a bone happy as a lark. 

Last night I stayed up to do another coat on the door. I have to replace the kick plate or whatever they call it but not perfect but done. It took till 130 last night as I took a tiny paintbrush to get all those small spots that seem to grow as I did it. hahahaha

Everyone is enjoying each other. They played and played today! See Tenshi and Raven run.

At this point I hope I get a full night sleep. I need it!

I give up on Adele - well not really but I am sure you understand.

Thank you for the video. It warms my heart seeing they are having fun. And this ball chasing game on the pool cover seems to be the hype these days!

The dogs love the pool and when it is done they love the games on the pool cover!

Darlah, what shampoo would you recommend for a very leg itchy dog?
The Vet can’t find anything wrong.
I have been using The Coat Handler 15:1 and matching conditioner and have rinse down lots.
Thank you

I would use nature's specialties medi boost if its really bad. You can add this to any shampoo so that may save you. For a combination, I would use NATURES SP. COLLOIDAL OATMEAL SHAMPOO and
NATURES SP. OATMEAL CREME RINSE but they also have some specific shampoos that may fir the issue you are experiencing. See Deboer Grooming supplies in goggle search.
