So our little Jadey had a total stink pot issue. When we got back from vacation she was ok. You could tell she was starting to be a bit gamey, but then all of a sudden this weekend, things went from gamey to limburger cheese. Finally, when Corey said she smelled like vomit one too many times (and didn’t respond to my, “well clean her then!!” comments) I called the groomer.
So today off she went. Poor thing though. As soon as we turned the corner onto Oak street, which is only about 2 blocks from our house, she started to shake like a leaf. Then she whined. “Uwww, uwwww” with *shake, shake* makes for a long ride (3 minutes) to the groomer. Of course she ended up on my lap which just confirmed it was a whole body shaky-shivery kind of thing, when she just about vibrated the fat off my thighs!!! (I should have driven around for an hour!)
We arrived and inside she went but she certainly did not want to be there. We saw a Jack Russell/Daschund mix who was also doing the shiver and shake, a black lab looking at her dad like he had just left her in one of Stalin’s Gulags and a big, brown, fuzzy poodle!!
I left her in good hands, but it certainly feels like leaving your kid a the kindergarten the first time. Or at least that’s how I imagine it feels!
Anyhow, an hour and a half later I picked up a clean smelly VERY happy little doggy!! She did circle after circle after circle when she saw me and then shook her tail and made her noises all the way home. A treat and the couch cushion of her choice and I left her in heaven!!!
