Grooming with Mom: Pumpkin

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia

Lucy here, reporting on Grooming with Mom. It’s been a while, folks, since Groomer Mom has given me a new groom to report. Today I have news about a young sister to one of our regular neighborhood dogs You may remember Everly, the elderly King Charles Spaniel who lives across the street (and one house down, to be more accurate) from us. You can see and read about her here if you like.

Before we continue, I want to thank  Comedy Plus for hosting Awww Mondays!

Pumpkin came to live with Everly and her family because all the relatives said they needed another dog. And since Everly’s aunt had a Doodle stud, why not keep it in the family, so to say. At about 6 months old, Pumpkin finally came on over for her first groom. Here is her “before” picture.

G.M. (Groomer Mom) had already started scissoring her when she remembered to take the picture.
Pumpkin was extremely good “on the table,” especially for a first time. She’s only about 15 or 20 pounds, so if she doesn’t grow too much more, G.M. will be able to continue to groom her.
Her Mom asked for something kind of like a Teddy Bear cut, so the scissoring took almost an hour. Then came the bath, and she was still a very good girl. She wasn’t too crazy about the drying, though.

But even then she didn’t fight, she just tried to pretend it wasn’t happening! What a sweetie she is.
Finally, Pumpkin was done and ready for her folks.

They were thrilled with the results, and Pumpkin got more treats.

    Healing thoughts to the 2 leggers. I think we are finally finding our energy again…the older we get the harder it is to kick things to the curb
