|
| Up until a couple summers ago I had

| |
| | say anything and volunteer that it was me

| My first clue that this might not be a

| | should probably put sunscreen on her back
|
| good idea was that although my neighbors
| |
| | for a week or two until it grew a little
|
| had clippers they still took their dog to
| |
| | longer. Of course I had brought my then
|
| the groomers for a trim. Why did I not

| | 4 year old daughter with me to pick up
|
| think to ask why they did that when they
| |
| | Meisha and as children will do they often
|
| had a perfectly great pair of trimmers at
