Many thanks to Miss Sandee at Comedy Plus for hosting Awww Monday! And thanks to all my readers for joining me in another episode of Grooming with Mom.
Even though Groomer Mom’s business cards and sign reads, “Small Dog Grooming,” we had another large dog on the table this past week.
Chia: It seems like they just keep sneaking in.
Lucy: No Chia, they are scheduled.
While Groomer Mom also worked at the Jewish synagogue, she promised her young co-worker that she would teach her how to groom her new puppy. Fast-forward four months, and the Golden Doodle is six months old and ready for her first groom. This is Willa, another precious puppy who has never had an accident in the house, never chewed anything, never misbehaved, never run off…Riley, Chia and Xena are trying hard not to hate her.

Willa’s Mom, who we will call L, used to help her Mom groom their shih tzus, so she’s been around the block once or twice. Groomer Mom demonstrated how to do a particular grooming task, then handed the tool to L to do it. Seems that L is what’s called “a natural.” She’s very artistic, so we think that helped. After a couple of hours, the “masterpiece” was finished.

Groomer Mom emailed to L the Amazon links of the tools she will need. With that, we say bye bye to sweet Willa knowing she’s in good hands.
This is Lucy, Ace Reporter, signing off ’til next time, with *wags* and *smiles*.
Mommy dropped Birdie Blue off this morning for her very first groomer visit. Birdie’s had a few driveway baths, but this is her first spa day. I’m thinking we’ll probably owe the groomer her own spa day when she’s finished with Birdie. Your mom is amazing, Lucy, and so good to teach Willa’s mom all about the techniques and tools she’ll need to keep Willa beautiful.

Mom, er, Groomer Mom firmly believes that it’s best for the dog when people want to — and are able to — keep them home and groom their pups themselves. But there’s enough folks who don’t to keep $ in Groomer Mom’s pocket, BOL! XOX Lucy

Nope. And folk think we don’t know when it’s the vet’s that we’re being loaded in the car for. They give it away with the guilty look on their faces.

Thanks for the great report Lucy! Willa does look so very beautiful! Unfortunately, when handing out the Groomer genes, Mama and Daddy were passed over.
They do groom Jakey because, yes, he is much happier being groomed at home…but Sunny and I put our paws down after that COVID thingy(and a few VERY sketchy furcuts) and made Mama find us a groomer! Of course, now Sunny is going to have to put up with Mama cutting her bangs until she is able to go the the groomer again.
xoxo,
Rosy, the best groomed gal in the house!
