Yes it's a lot of effort, but the dogs love being
groomed, (Bear and Panda especially like the massaging feel
of the blow dryer on their chest and under their chin. You
should see the Big Dorks when they know it is their pampering
time!!!!!)
They enjoy the drive to the show taking in the interesting
smells and the wind in their hair. The dogs love to get out
of the car and explore the show and meet new furry friends
so are mostly willing to run around the ring a couple
of times to amuse me!!
For me, I love the special time of grooming the
dogs. It is a time for them and me to be close and loving
and if I am not mistaken they seem to appreciate me looking
after them in this nurturing way...
I love saying: "Want to go to a Show?!" and seeing their
faces light up (they already knew with all the grooming but NOW is
the time they can get excited) and WOW when when
I say: "In the Car!" they are out the door, waiting at the
car in a shot!
I look forward to the drive with them and seeing how excited
they are to be going somewhere new like Great Explorers!
And the day itself, well we love the wandering around, catching
up with people and then really just watching the world go
by with my best friends right there with me.
