You have to walk them, groom them, clean up after them. I don’t think it’s hard work. I think we just need a way to make dog chores fun.  […]

I’m stealing it, too! My one dreaded chore is removing those darn little poopies that sometimes don’t make it all the way to the ground and get stuck in the nether-fur. Perhaps we could coin “dingleberry picking” or “clingon battle?”

Can I just clarify at no point was he choked or put in any danger at all – re read that and suddenly looked like he was being punished. He was not, just trying to hold him still so that we don’t nick him with the scissors!

Um any ideas as how to put a positive spin on putting your dog in some form of choke hold to try and cut the mats out of his fur, because despite being sat and brushed often, with plenty of treats, as a puppy your dog runs and hides under the table every time you go to the area where his brush is stored?

The only things I hate doing are those the pups don’t like. Such as pillination. But with Cookie it’s easy by hiding pills in food stuffs. Jasmine wasn’t fooled that easily.

She said SHE needs a spa day After that. She doesn’t even try to brush my teeth.

I love commando training for Pierson. How about hunting for dust bunnies for sweeping the floor? Getting a makeover for grooming? Enhancing the canines for teeth brushing? 🙂

And with squirrels around that need chasing, aren’t all walks adventures?

Not sure I can top your spin. Perhaps a reference to looking for icicles? Because surely even Newf drool freezes in the temps we’ve been having lately.
