Combing

Here is the gallery.

Each day I brush out x dogs. Pingo is a daily one till his bath. If I put on my grooming coat, he just gets out of my eyesight - on purpose but I will go to every other day as his coat is knot free for the most part till he plays. LOL These days I get proactive if we have boarders. They get partially done till the last day they are here and then they get their bath and cleanup. Gus is departing tomorrow so I clipped him down and will finish him tomorrow. 

Cody is also departing tomorrow. Ms Murphy is coming tomorrow. She will be washed and bathed tomorrow night and mom will pick her up on Monday - on my day off.

Jamie has decided he controls the door. Food - I want to eat FIRST. Charlotte is more laid back. When you get to me you do. Each dog has their own personality. 

We had to buy another ottomon. A visitor ate the side off of it and must have done it in fast order. We couldn't even hide it. We do get damage. Hidden costs - scissor sharpening, damaged furniture and we won't talk about Dennis grass which is growing but probably needs to be overseeded till next year. LOL 

It is cold today - too cold to swim. I think Harper's parent's asked me about swimming. Not happening unless it war,s up but we will try.

I will tell you that the dogs like the cool. If white stuff didn't come, I could stand spring, summer and fall. I am not a fan of snow but I see snowblowers are starting to go on sale. Will we have enough snow? We haven't in the last number of years. 

Everyone is playing in a huge way and I had to cut some branches out of my middle bed as Harlow insists on going under the brush to find whatever. That was fun today.
