Nori's Last Bath Before 

Here is the gallery.

Oh my gad she was the star beyond so far. She was curious. Playful and was all about the attention. I was thrilled to do her today as she was so easy.

This gal will change colours as a tri-colour. She was a playful pistol this morning and as she is on the smaller side, she takes no grief from the boys. She says enough and they listen. LOL

Kevin's Last Bath Before Departure

Here is the gallery.

He is the 2nd to depart tomorrow. 

He didn't care what I did. Oh, we are doing this again? Okay, I got this!

I love his hair when it gets poofy right out of the blow dry. He calmed me down and all was right and on time for Darcy too despite fitting in a dog to groom that wasn't supposed to come. LOL

Bowie's Last Bath

Here is the gallery.

He was a real character in and during the blow dry. He made me laugh. We had lost the microchip reader so we were going a but crazy. It was of course my fault but funny it was found under Nathan's keyboard. I so laugh. When you are under stress oh boy!

So, the point was he probably felt my stress but he was more than fine - Mr. Laidback.

This boy will be the 3rd to depart tomorrow - yes 3 are departing tomorrow have 2 days of 1.

Play Before a Pup Departure

Here is the gallery from the upstairs play.

Tonight a Willow pup departs and we will be down to 9. Getting quieter.

Pups had a blast upstairs and are now playing outside - their fave. No videos or photos from outside as I am blogging to get things done. But we will have video and a gallery on Willow's blog after Gus departs.

Videos Coming soon.
