Sookie the Brand New Doggy!

Sookie was finally groomed today! It's amazing, as she doesn't even look like the same dog. Here are before and after pictures to show how different she looks (You'll probably recognize the first photo from a post a few days ago):

It's a miracle!

Our groomer does such a good job with her, also considering the fact that she is not exactly the easiest dog to groom. Even the groomer at PetSmart was not able to do much with her because she was so fidgety! However, I'm sure Sookie is also less stressed out now than when she was at PetSmart as the groomer we currently use comes to our home so she is not in an entirely different place. And the fact that there are no other dogs there to make her even more anxious is also a big plus!





"Can't you just let me sleep, Mom??"

Of course, I just had to put a bow in Sookie's hair afterwards to show how much prettier she looks wearing it now than in the 'before' picture with all the hair in her face. As you can see she was very tired from all the chaos of the morning. This was a good thing for me, as it was much easier to put the bow in this time since she was too sleepy to move around that much!

Sookie's New Bows

I ordered 24 doggy bows about five days ago, and today they arrived in the mail! They only cost $12 altogether (including shipping), which is very cheap considering that I've seen just one set of bows costing around the same price at PetSmart and on Amazon. Lynn Tatro, who I highly recommend, is the seller I purchased them from.




I didn't realize that I would receive Halloween-styled bows as well (bag on the right). How cool!

Of course, I had to immediately tie a pair of bows into Sookie's hair and take pictures. She wasn't too crazy about them (this is the first time we've placed bows in her hair) and moved a lot when I attempted to put them in, so that is why they don't exactly look perfect.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It is also not hard to tell that Sookie still hasn't been groomed, either, but we finally did set up an appointment for the mobile groomer to stop by this coming Monday. Hopefully by then she will look so much better with the bows - I just have to remember to tell the groomer to keep the hair on her head long enough so that she will still be able to wear them.
