1-24-09 Abby Got A Haircut, Nanner, Nanner boo-boo
Even Abby Sunshine has to mind her personal care from time to time. Although a major haircut would not be healthy for Abby’s fur, trimming the hair between the footpads keeps it from matting and collecting debris outdoors. This prevents discomfort for the dog. Today we trimmed the fur sticking out from her pads. She took it like a good dog and offered her paws nicely. It appeared she would rather be doing something else, but allowed for the “beauty treatment!”
As you can see by Abby’s “clean-cut” appearance, we also trimmed the fur on her ears. This fur can grow quite long, and although it looks stylish, it is fine and gets matted easily. Doesn’t she look grand? It was -2 (yes, two below zero) Fahrenheit when we took this photo, so the moisture froze quickly where there was dampness by Abby’s eyes and mouth.
Another shot indoors- doesn’t her fur look silky, so silky?
