The bad and ugly

...that was Chewie today.
He and Biscuit ran around, but also went down by the lake and into the brush and weeds.
Chewie found the burrs :evil: :evil: :evil:

Here's the result....


After a lot of combing, picking and then brushing, he was burr-free!
Of course as long as I had him up on the table, I stripped at his over hairy neck, chest and shoulders (too bushy means his harness for sledding doesn't fit properly)



and all pigtailed up!


and per a previous talk here about rubber bands - this is what I have now - they are a small, polyband -
Respond to this topic here on forum.oes.org  
Glad to know SuperDog is just a dog after all....complete with.......faults.....or foibles. he's adorable all burred up and just as lovely brushed brushed. :hearts:

He was probably trying to get away from Bond..........
have to agree with susan, "boys will be boys" at least when moms not watching. 8)
I like Chewie in his rough, outdoorsy look but those burrs hurt so they have to go. I will try those elastics on Mady. My poor frizzhead girl.
Bet he had lots of fun with his buddy Biscuit! :D Looks great all cleaned up!
We use similar hair ties. Originally intended for Melissa but now used to torture Izzie and Taylor. Or that seems to be their view :twisted: :roll:


Also have experienced the attack of the burr face monster....only when ours are on leash 8O They always manage to stick their head in the one bush on the path with burrs :cow:


Chewie looks so handsome before and after his cleanup :hearts:
LMBO...I've seen that face before...of course Gar.
Awe.. What's a guy to do? With Bond around, he has to show him the ropes. :pupeyes:

Luckily, Bond was NOT along on this adventure! :twisted: :phew: :phew:

And of course Biscuit had not a single burr on his smooth coat. 8) 8)

Oh-- I read that wrong. I thought you were brave to let Bond go run with the big guy already. :lol:

I TRIED to stand up for Chewie :wink:
Good try :D :D ...but Chewie was in the dog house.
Mostly because he turned a deaf ear, not the fact that he got the burrs in himself.
He so rarely does this...I told Todd it's probably the 2nd time in his life I've ever yelled at him. :(
And he knew he was a naughty boy...but now all's well and he's back to his usual good self. :D
He did look a little regretful in that first picture. :aww:

Now I ask you, Chewie... was that 10 minutes of running and disobeying your Mum
worth the 2 hours of grooming?

Oh what's that you say? You HAD to do it
in order to blow off some of the frustration of having
that new puppy move in.

he looks like me in the morning :lol:

I got some little elastics in the post today - Just in preparation, george isn't hairy enough yet :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

This is my take on it: he did it FOR the puppy. How could the puppy ever live up to Chewie if he was perfect ALL the time? Not fair to the puppy. :wink:
