What a way to start the week! A water-loving Lab kicked things off, a pair of Shih Tzu brothers melted some hearts, and a sweet anxious girl closed out the day. Let me introduce you to today’s wonderful pack!
Here is a look at today’s wonderful pack:
Addie the Black Labrador Retriever
My day started with Addie the black Labrador Retriever. This silly girl is always happy — and I mean always — and she could not have been more ready for her bath. She loves water. Show a Lab a tub and you will understand the breed, and Addie is a textbook case. Bath day is not a chore for this one. It is the main event.
Nixon and Burrow the Shih Tzus
Next up came a duo: Nixon and Burrow the Shih Tzus. These adorable boys melted some hearts in chat, each in his own way.
Nixon wore his nervousness right out in the open, and we took his groom at a gentle, patient pace. Burrow was his opposite: calm, cool, and not too typically cool about any of it. Side by side, the two of them made the sweetest pair — one leaning on the patience, one setting the chill tone for the whole van.
Moosie the Cocker Spaniel
And last but not least, Miss Moosie! This girl is so anxious. But as sweet as could be. Every nervous dog gets the same promise from me: we go at your pace, a little bit at a time, and every small step counts as the win it is. Moosie did her part beautifully today, sweet through and through.
Until next time, my furry friends!
