Ollie was groomed at Planet Dog on Saturday and met his twin (they say everyone has one somewhere in the world -- in his case the planet) ... his name was Charlie and his mother was also a poodle with his dad a shih Tzu mix ... and they had the exact same coloring -- black double coat of hair with white chest, paws, and tip of tail -- but Charlie was much bigger than Ollie. This time Ollie had a ...super short summer hair cut because he HATES to be brushed no matter how gentle I am, how many treats I give him, or the number of breaks he has ... the little imp still tries to bite me. I can usually anticipate it happening when he shows his teeth (looks like he's smiling) so I'll stop and give him a break, a treat, or just pat him while heaping on praise. He still ends up biting me at least once or twice during a grooming session. Does he not recall I saved him and his entire family from a kill shelter in Texas with only 2 days left before they were to be put down? Where's the love and gratitude? Not feeling it. Maybe with his super short 'do' I won't have to worry about brushing him for a while ... he's quite handsome with his new hair cut.
