Wow, what a day!

Tito/Tiny-Foster dog on Grooming - Wed, July 23 2008

I was pretty good over night. I did wake up around 6 and need to use the facilities. So I whined until FD woke up. I just get kinda nervous sometimes so I wuffle a lot. That's what FM calls my noises I make. I don't really have a bark, it sounds more hoarse so she calls it a wuffle instead of a bark. Anyway, everybody went off and left me for a long time then FM and her friend Gretchen came back. They loaded me into the car and off we went. We went to a place called Wipe Your Pawz for a spa session. They were going to cut all my hair off and let me start over but they couldn't get the clippers through my coat. So it became bath time and during that, my hair all started falling out. FM was busy just keeping the drain clear! I got washed and washed and washed then finally we were done. Over to the big noisy dryer. That took forever and my hair was flying everywhere. There was a big black dog getting dry too and I think he was half white by the time I was dry. Amazingly enough, my yucky hair all came out with the bath and dry. I got a little trimming done on my ears but overall, very little scissoring or clipping. I feel so much better and I lost over 3 pounds!!! FM says she's going to wash her hair a bunch tonight and see if it works for her. Then we came back to the house and I had a photo shoot(check out my new pics). Then supper and a nap. It's been a really busy day. I'm learning some stuff like you have to sit if you want any food or treats. I'm trying to be nice to everybody but I really want to play with these guys and nobody wants to play. Other than that, it's pretty cool around here. I think I'm going to go take a walk around outside again. Oh, I forgot to tell you that I jumped right over the Xpen last night several times so that's not working out. I'm either crated or on a leash the whole time. Bummer.

Big deal. I still don't like you. Hopefully you'll go away at the end of the week never to be heard from again.

Well, I think you look snazzy all fluffy and white. Officer Chase, I think you and I need to go have a beer....

crates & leashes aren't bad when you still get treats and lovin'... word of experience. Glad you got squeaky clean, Scamper. Hey, your name is like mine. Scouter ... Scamper... Scouter... Scamper. And we both need crates & leashes, like to jump! Maybe you should be Scamper-Roo!

Hey Scamper, you kind of look like a white fuzzy version of Maddie & Syd in your pictures. Cute!

You look super, Scamp. I bet you feel a lot better too. Love your pix out by the flowers.....very very nice. Mama says your tail reminds her of a pomeranian, whatever that is. Anyway, sounds like you're getting the hang of the new place.

You are SOOOO cute. Glad you got rid of all that extra fur. You'll fit in - eventually. I even play with Charlie - every once in a while.

Mom wondered why she thought you looked so adorable! We must all come from that basic Spitz-type dog with the prick ears, curly tail and pretty muzzle. You look even more handsome since your spa day.
