The waterless spray shampoos come in really handy, too. |
Tibbe is such a little devil, as soon as his bath/drying are over and he's brushed smooth and handsome, sharp looking, he gets into the floor or on the bed and wallows and rolls until he looks like a tumbleweed the moment I leave the room! If he had a long coat, I would weep myself dry. He will stand for a good brushing and smoothing each day and take the absolute first chance he can to mess it all up. And when I come back in the room and see him, he stands there and looks at me through his mustache which is sticking up all over his eyes and looks so proud of himself. He's hopeless in the looks department. I finally had to settle for loving the "touseled look".
