Such Fun

Neesi and Cinnamon had a great time with Nathan and I managed to catch it. It was wonderful fun. They are so similar - full of personality.
Poor Lachlan got sprayed by a skunk. This was at his home. This is the season. I don't want to see a skunk here as some of you that have been around for a long time know that I made Nathan sleep outside under the gazebo with a blow up bed, sheets and the whole 9 yards and walls when 2 of our dogs got sprayed. I learned from our late golden that when they come inside, they rub all over everything and the smell remains. It does on the dogs too as it seeps into the pores. It takes about 3 to 6 weeks before it totally fades. We took him into the pool then I did many treatments and get this, I should have done it with gloves on as when I started exercising, all I could smell is skunk. I guess I am skunked. Yes, I share so you can laugh as I am. This is the time to pick up from Pet Pharmacy or from your vet to have on hand skunk off. If you have corn starch, even better bnut you should have both on hand. I say this as corn starch absorbs the oil. Of course, I can do it for you if you are one of my grooming clients. It takes way too much time to do it for someone that isn't a grooming client. You can do it yourself but you need the supplies on hand. It lasts from year to year so no worries about it going bad.
It was overcast today for a part of the day. The dogs enjoyed it. Our son and girlfriend came to visit. It was wonderful. The dogs had a ton of attention. Dennis did the run game around the pools. I had to cut foliage back so he had room to run. My bad but I got it mostly done.
It has been a day of lots of work but it was a fun day too! Hope yours was too. Heat is coming.

Newt thinks his sister looks beautiful!
Here's a funny story, neighbor walking her Wheaten terrier, asked me if I could distinguish between weed and skunk smell. I leaned over to pet her dog, did it a 2nd time, asked do you have tall grasses,plants in your yard, she said yes. I told her your dog must have brushed against sprayed foliage, it's your dog that's stinking. Yup, since the night before.
