Spring is Here!

Reminder: I'm switching blogging sites and this is an oldie but a goodie... enjoy!

Spring is here! I am excited! I realize I live in Northwest Florida, and our winters aren't near as rough as let's say Michigan, but I am glad that the calendar says spring is here even if the weather still doesn't. In honor of spring, Max got a hair cut. Yes, I know that his breed had long hair, but I can't deal with the hair tumbleweeds rolling around in the house. Plus, since the weather is trying to warm up Max loves it.

                            

I once went to a groomer and paid $70.00 for the visit. I couldn't believe it! I am not used to paying that kind of money for a haircut and a bath on a dog. I however, have never had a dog that required a lot of upkeep concerning their fur. My Dad got these clippers from Wal-Mart for only $50.00 and I have been using them about every four months for two years. Definitely worth every penny of fifty bucks. It takes two days to completely shave Max. The first day is for getting the most of the hair off, then the second is for fine tuning the haircut so that he doesn't look like a two year-old gave him a cut.

       

After I'm done I give him a good ol' soapy bath. He loves it. He stands there and takes it all in. As soon as he's bathed, he runs around and shakes as much of the water off of him.

Boy do I love that dog,
