Mom said that humans get makeovers for the holidays and that it was my turn. I was really excited …at first!
The weather outside was gorgeous!

It was then that I realized I was in for the real deal! A hair cut, bath and blow dry! It is a BIG deal to bathe an XL, XFluffy dog like me. I tried my cloak of invisibility, but Mom knew how to find me despite that trick.
She gathered her tools and placed them strategically in her bathroom.

With a snip and a swish, she began to trim. What a job it is to give this girl a decent hair cut. Two hours later, we called it quits. Mom said she had enough “fun” for one day, since we still had to bathe me. Mom told me that she would give me a finish cut in the next couple of days. With that, she stood up and put alway her tools. Look what she took off my coat!

Even though I cooperate, it still takes Mom and Dad to bathe me. Hey, it is not fun to stand in the horse mats and get hosed down with cold water, have foamy goo rubbed on you, and then be hosed again! I have to protest by shaking the water and goo off on Mom and Dad. They are pretty good about my shakes though. They don’t get mad. The only thing is, they can’t take pictures of me bathing cos I get them so very wet.
I look like this now since I am not dry this morning even though we did do some drying with a dryer on cool.

When I am dry later, I will share my holiday makeover! It was a big deal!

Woofs and wags,

Bella
