Dottie's hair was getting long and getting in her eyes, she was starting to get a bit too stinky, and she needed a haircut badly! To brush her myself is a chore - what happened to, oh they love to be brushed? I put her on my lap every night with a treat and a toy and I brush her - she hates it... she fights me all the way! I have detangler, and I go ever so gently, doesn't matter - just the sight of the brush, comb, anything - she's an insane pup!
But, besides being the Cray-Cray Pup that she is, she's a true Cutie-Patootie, and this weekend she did something new - she snuggled up in my arms and lap on the couch and acted like the perfect lap dog... we watched the movie, Maudie, and I cried like a ninny at the end and she stood up on my lap, with her paws on my shoulders and washed my tears away... such a sweet pup!
