I wrapped her up and combed her topknot hair out and put a grooming band in it. I don't use a dryer though. I use a space heater and comb them dry. I hold the hair so it doesn't pull their skin and gently work on any knots that I missed prior to the bath. I don't use a pin brush since Natasha doesn't like it so I only use a comb. Anyway she was a champ through the whole process. She got a sani trim but doesn't like to have her feet messed with so I couldn't get her paw pads trimmed but I will work on trying to help her get comfortable with the process. BTW... I think her tail was docked very close to her body so she doesn't have much of a nubbin.
After she got dry we went outside for a potty break and to try for some pictures. She felt very good after her bath and was trotting around... I could really tell she felt good. I got a few pictures of her to post here for everyone. It started to sprinkle so for my cameras sake so we ended early. Look at what a beauty she is. |
She is gorgeous!! I'll bet she will learn to
love her bath!
Jen, you are doing such a wonderful job with her .... you would make an invaluable foster mom for a rescue!!
