Badly stained Westies

While at the Pasir Ris dog run this afternoon, we saw 2 huge Westies that were badly stained - rust-red - on their legs. Overheard some whisperings comparing them with Uno…wanted to chat with their owners but they seemed fairly aloof :(
Also saw Bambi the Cairn gal…her colouring is so unlike the usual Cairn, white with a goldish tinge…so pretty!

ACV

After reading so much that ACV and fruits may cause yeast to flourish, I decided to remove these items from Uno’s diet to see if it helps to reduce his scratching. Horror of horrors! Not only did it not help to reduce itch, Uno’s skin flared up with angry red bumps all over his back, legs :( Put him back on ACV, hopefully the condition is under control.

My trainers

After brisk walking for several weeks, finally got my jogging shoes last Wed and put them to use this morning. Uno’s stamina is really good…Abby and I were panting our lungs out while he looked absolutely cool :P
Since Uno and Abby came, I have become more active bringing them for walks, playing with them etc instead of hibernating infront of TV or reading a book. Finally understood why some folks refer to their dogs as their personal trainers ;)

My grooming skills

I was too ambitious …groomed both Uno and Abby today from 10am till almost 7pm! Ended with a terrible backache, tired arms and 2 happy dogs ;) Both trims turned out well but what really made me happy was that Abby did not shiver one bit during her session. Was it due to her confidence in me or has she become accustomed to the clipper? Or maybe it was a little of both.
