Alfie's Visit
Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 4:41PM 
This is Alfie after I got him groomed up today. He's not one of our breedings but he came for a visit and to get some loving and some coat cleanup meaning knot elimination. He is such a good boy and was about it.
I have been busy in the grooming department and it hasn't stopped as just before bedtime Phantom gets done as he heads off west first thing in the morning for 10 to 14 days. I will miss him but I imagine when Phantom's dad goes back to Paulas so will Phantom.
This morning I wrapped Phantom's coat in a deep moisturizer (only stuff you do for a bad coat or a show coat) and tonight I will wash it all out and blow dry him, wrap his underneath and then redo the wraps in the morning so he stays very clean. Crazy show dog stuff. I will miss Phantom but I also miss the pups but who knows what the future will bring. I imagine more pups are in store for us in among swimming and who knows what. We shall see.
At PawsWay on Saturday June 2nd and Sunday June 3rd Nathan will be doing an event with a couple of dogs to show off the Havanese. Do visit him if you are close to Pawsway on those days. He will be selling the 2011 t-shirts with our Katsura on the back, tote bags, hats and a few other things to help Rescue. We may put them out on our play dates but don't feel obligated to buy any of it. It's only if you want - no pressure especially for those that won't be able to get down to Pawsway. It's just something we do for Rescue when we have too much merchandise from the specialties. It helps us to help the havanese in need.
Tip of the day. If you have too many lengths of hair like a shag cut in a havanese it will mat easier. Many do not realize this.
Another tip cause it rained today - hose off just the feet but comb the paws and let them dry so they don't get knots. I wish I had a mudroom for days like today. What do you do?
