Go Your Own Way Fleetwood Mac

When I see Brewer going one way and the others going the other way, I am reminded of the song by Fleetwood Mac. It makes me laugh and maybe as we are under an extreme cold alert once again, his heading back in says - cold no thanks!!

Here is the gallery.

Remember under this cold alert your dogs CAN get frostbitten.

Slowly but surely the pest Kinsey is winning over Bonham as she is a persistent thing. He does play with her but appears to think of her as a pest that won't give in and then he says why not. I believe he likes the pest being a pest. It was comical today. 

I taught Kinsey come today. But she thinks she should get free treats vs wirking for them. She does a dance. She jumps up mid air - aren't I entertaining - treat me will you.  She so loves being the class clown. 

Shlomo has been having a grand time. I can't believe he goes in a few days. He loves finding the treat game is the best and he is good at it. 

Ms Harlow - what can I say but Katie and her have been playing the last few days. It's wonderful to watch!

Ok, who is the sunbather in the gallery? Smart cookie! The sun was really nice but the shade, nope! Not in the mood for riding either, maybe still tired from shoveling snow.
Just inquiring, should I use a heavier moisturizing conditioner for the doggies since it's so dry in the house, you know I have everything, lol ! Their coats just have more static. And for Nathan, Pixie's coat is really coming in beautifully, each month it gets better.

The messy sunbather is Cinnamon. To reduce static you need to use a grooming spray or add a humidifier or both. A heavier conditioner will only create a need to wash more. What are you using now?

Plush puppy OMG diluted as the grooming spray. Showsheen only when blowdrying, lightly.
RE Conditioner in the bath, whatever I'm trying to use up😂, lots to choose, Crown Royal, Alexander's, Nature's specialty, CC. I think I'm narrowing it down to the best performing for each of their coats.
I got some igroom shampoo and conditioner, even slightly better than CC Drop coat, it is FABULOUS stuff. And because it's so concentrated used only 1 teaspoon in my tub for Leo, suds up really well, then conditioner(I do 2 steps for Leo because of all his hair) and he really doesn't matt at all, yippee! I think more expensive but a little goes a long way. I did a blind test and Tom noticed as well the 2 best, CC and igroom.
