Before and After



The Shaggy Dog / The Rat Dog



Dear Diary,  

The morning of my grooming (yesterday), Mom felt as though she should have a photo shoot.  She said my cuteness was about to disappear.


She said I'd look like a Poodle after my grooming...


Or a Rat...

Me, in the car on my way to get my make-over

There I am


 I was happy to be riding in the Buick.  Every time the car made a turn onto another road, I went crazy with excitement.  Then I accidentally pushed the window button and mom freaked.  'Gracie, you'll get your head stuck in there!' she screamed.  


She worries too much.


I was just fine.  She needs to get a grip.


I laugh at her ranting mostly...

But I guess she got the last laugh.


 I do look like a rat.  Gracie.

  5. You look adorable Gracie! I always wondered if Kelly would feel more comfortable with a shorter haircut for the summer but can't bring myself to have it done too short. Stay cool and comfy and know how cute you always are!

  10. I think you look cute, Gracie, and it will grow back!! Koda has hit the button to open the window, I'm always afraid he will fly out the window! Thankfully, that window doesn't work any more......

    Koda truly understands; he got groomed at the vet's today; bath and nails clipped; he smells so good like I'm sure you do!

  11. Gracie, I've seen a rat and there's no way you look like one!!! One thing about hair, is that it always grows, but you have to admit, aren't you feeling a bit better since it's gotten so hot?

  12. Samson Says: Gracie, your cuteness is still there, but you look so sad. Cheer up and just think how cool you will be this summer. You will both look cool and be cool. Now, how cool is that, I ask. xoxo, your Samson
