Duds was in desperate need of a shave. It has been consistently 90+ degrees out and I was feeling like a bad mother trying to torture her kid by going out with a snow suit on and making them play a game of catch.
Duds is happy about this change, but Tyler is in BIG trouble though. A few days prior the breeder came over to pluck out 3 whiskers for a DNA test and to check up on us, give us coupons for food, and to give us grooming instructions...specific instructions mind you to let the groomer know what they are not supposed to do to a doodle. He came home looking like a Dalmatian with a sunburn and his tail hair shaved completely off....oooh big, big trouble.
I'm still trying to forget about the 7 times last week that he's pooped in the house when he knows better, but cleaning up feces is a hard task to put out of mind when we just barely had the carpets cleaned. Love this guy but being a dog owner is so difficult. He is gaining more confidence but is starting to scare the little neighbor children by barking and chasing them off while maintaining a bit of distance. He's a little bugger right now. Check back with us next month...our shock collar is coming and we can't even tell you how excited we are. Is that terrible or what?
Here he is finally playing fetch! We've been working so hard on him to be like a normal dog/puppy but he's definitely surpassed our expections.

You, Summer, use a shock collar?! I am surprised! I hope it works though...stinker dogs can be a challenge!
