Well, he's back from grooming.....they have weird prices. Usually, they just charge me $7 for a nail/eye/belly/butt trim....(because I work next door and they know me)....but I told them to go ahead and give him a bath this time and the bill was $25? Strange.
And...I dropped him off at 10 a.m. and checked on him at 12:30, and he was still sitting on their counter on the rope. Given, it wasn't exactly inhumane but it wasn't great for him, bless his heart, for that long! And I'm only two doors down and have two dog beds and toys and everything.
I haven't taken any pics yet but I will in a few minutes
