Gizmo came for a bath and haircut. I hand scissored him and took about an inch and a quarter off him and layered him. Doesn't he look like Raven but he has a longer, nicer tail for the ring. :-) Not showing it doesn't matter. Jeannie has a shorter tail. Jeannie is a champion. So, I am nitpicking but still nicer.
As my hands truly are still bad, Nathan washed and dried then we did it again as Gizmo had to go potty. Nathan thought oh a minute outside and we will just clean the feet. Well, he decided to have some water fun. It was as if he said oh water, I must. He is a water baby and LOVED the water. He will be a great candidate for the pool and so will Tenshi. Wait till you see them in the gallery.
I shaved his tummy partially but as you can see you can't see it and it makes it ever so much easier to take care of the coat. I also thinned out his chest where it tends to knot on all havanese and thinned out behind the ears, his bum etc. He came perfectly combed.
No one else got brushed out by me but Nathan did the visitors and Raven. One more day and hopefully I will be okay. Nathan keeps mumbling I should teach Dennis. hmmm
Jessie and Murphy arrived so we have 3 Murphys here. Everyone freaked out for the first 20 minutes at Jessie as he's a collie but a gentle soul. Now they act as he's always been here. It's great conditioning. Jessie will be here till Monday.
Benji is arriving shortly. Looks like by Monday we have an emptier house.
Everyone has warm towels around them I heated up and soon will be brushed out again.
They say snow tonight. hmm
