Time for a haircut!

Last weekend, we got home from our baby shower in Fort Wayne....and I decided that it was time to do a little 'trimming' of the dog's hair. His puppy coat had grown out far enough, that if I cut it off, he'd be left with cords about 3-4" long. (The puppy coat was kind of rusty colored, and the cords were really flat and fat looking....they didn't look like ropes.)

So, I began my adventure by trimming just a few....then that led to a few more....and a few more....and then Tony caught me in the act. You can see the 3 piles or so laying on the ground around us. Sanders did pretty awesome to sit there and just let me clip all over.

After all was said and done, the dog looked a little less like a mop, and a little more like a dog. He looks so skinny now...it is really weird!!
On another note, Tony was brushing the cat a couple of weeks ago, and Sanders REALLY REALLY wanted to be up close and personal with Gizmo. So, he snuck in between Tony's legs, and popped his head right up in Gizmo's face. The cat just kind of scoffed at him with this look that said 'What are you looking at, you smelly beast?"
