Another fine morning in the Midwest. We are in a Winter Weather Warning until tomorrow afternoon, weather people are saying expect 6-8″ of snow by tomorrow morning. Is it spring yet?! This morning, I was hoping that the snow would not hold me back from getting Arie to the groomer, he was in desperate need of a bath, a trim and a fresh smell. I would have given him a bath at home, but it never got warm enough.

So I settled on the groomer- a perk is she let’s him stay for the day and if there are other pups there he gets a play date.

So because of Arie’s homeless looking coat, I decided to do a before and after pictures of him because I knew it would be a significant change.

Here is Arie’s BEFORE picture:

 Please look closely at his “grinch” looking paws, his hair was so long. He barely could see out of his long bangs. Poor little guy.

Here is Arie’s AFTER picture:

Please look closely at his paws-no more “grinch” paws. He has shorter bangs and can see a bit better. He also has a fancy St. Patty’s Day scarf with green dogs.

I just want to snuggle him, he smells so good and is so fluffy and soft.

I took this picture on my cell phone of Arie on the couch.

He has freakishly long legs. His legs are as long as my arms. 🙂

Arie is so handsome and smells so good!

Thank you to Garci, our groomer! 🙂
