Back to Work and More Grooming, Too

First my exciting news…Mom took me to work today! I don’t know if I got my job back or if she just felt sorry that I have been home alone this week. Riley has been gone with Andrew to I-don’t-know-where, so two whole days while Mom and Dad were at work. I want you to know I was a very, very good dog today. I only pottied outside. I greeted everyone with wiggles and a few licks.

        I got to be outside in the church’s big yard a lot. 

I dug a hole in the grass that was planted last fall. Mom had to fix it. It was just a small hole, so I don’t know what the problem was.

        I just want to see everyone, Mom.

It was a busy day, so towards the end of the day I laid in the hallway outside of Mom’s office to ensure I got belly rubs from everyone. I didn’t want anyone to feel left out. Everyone said I was beautiful and they loved my brindle color. One person said she has a Siamese cat named Lucy and another lady said she has a King Charles Spaniel named Lucy. It was a Lucy kind of day! Exactly at 4:30 I stood up and told Mom it was time to go home. She looked at me kind of weird and said the spirit of Lexi must be resting on me. I really don’t know what that meant, or why I suddenly sensed it was time to go home. It just felt right.

Now, I want to tell you about the dog Mom groomed last Friday. Her name is Sophie and she is supposed to be a shih Tzu. Mom thinks she is a Shih Tzu-Maltese cross. The first and last time Mom groomed Sophie was January of 2015. She was an extremely matted mess then, and was again this time, too. Mom de-matted her and cut her hair with the scissors. It took Mom three hours.

I am going to let my secretary Mom finish up now so she can go make doggie cookies. I might even save some for Riley.

Oh, and I was dog tired last night after my hard day of work at the church.

        I think I am too tired to walk to the bedroom, Mom.

Love and Wiggles, Lucy

  2. Of course Angel Lexi is helping you, L – not just to get your mom to go home on time, but also to be a good girl at work. Those are big paws-boots to fill, so she has to stay by your side to help.

    Love and licks,

  3. Yes, it’s true, I was very good at work. And thanks, *blush*. Maybe Mom should do a contest showing ungroomed dogs vs groomed dogs and see if people can match them up!

  4. Hi Mia! Thanks, *blush*
    No, no one saw it but Mom, and she just tried to fix it. I didn’t even get scolded. It was a very small hole, really! I will ask Mom to take more pictures of me for you to see. *smiles and wags and wiggles* lucy

  5. Dogs need a job – and you, as greeter, have the best one. (No need to continue practicing those water well digging skills – you’ve got an upgraded employment worthy of you!)
    (Whew only 3 hrs to de-mat – that’s pretty fast. Nothing worse than matting – on mixed wonder dog or pure breed)

  6. What a great day you had Lucy! Greeting folk can be so much fun…I love peeps. Sophie looks fantastic….the poor girl was a terrible mess before your mom worked on her. Good going Amy. Wonder why her mom waited so long to get her furs groomed?
