Farley’s Friday – Grooming While Cruising

 

Farley here!

My owner, Kristina, has decided she doesn’t have time to write about me. She’s too busy writing her book. So . . . I’ve stolen her laptop and am going to write my blog. My paws are a bit clumsy, but I can do it. I know I can.

Farley Guarding Kiting Gear on a Beach in the Bahamas

How do you like my hair cut above? Too short, I think. But it’s too hot in the Bahamas for me to have long hair. Plus, I get covered in sand and get itchy. I just wish Kristina had taken lessons in clipping my hair. Once she gave me a bald spot on top of my head. Good thing I’m a dog and don’t care.

So what’s in my grooming kit?

  • Nail clippers (Kristina does this weekly so the quick recedes, and she doesn’t hurt me.)
  • Large scissors
  • Small scissors blunted at the end (for around my eyes and ears.)
  • Toothpaste and brush (Not my favourite, but if I get an infection in my mouth, Kristina can clean it.)
  • Clippers   (For my winter haircut)
  • Brush (One suited for my coat – you might be different and need a specific kind.)
  • Comb
  • Ear cleaning fluid (I hate this, but I get ear infections from too much time in salt water and this prevents them.)
  • Cotton swabs (For cleaning the inside of my ears without hurting me.)
  • Shampoo
  • Conditioner (It’s embarrassing when she conditions my hair, but at least I smell nice.)
  • Towels (So I don’t have to use human towels. They get testy about that. They also get annoyed when I’m wet and jump in their bed.)

Woof Woof.

    Tell Farley he did a great job with this. Not even a single typo! Extra doggie treats for that.

    Adorable!

  2. Very possible that that’s my kiting gear so a quick ‘thank you’ shout out to my dear pal, Farley!

    • Debi, It was your kiting gear. You were getting Bruce ready to ‘fly’, which I don’t like and tell you by barking, but you never listen. Maybe this winter your dog listening skills will improve :) If not, I sure hope we get to run together. Woof Woof.

  3. Dear Kristina,
    I love your post speaking from Farley’s point of view. Awesome. It adds even more character to your wonderful blog.

    Dear Farley, I cut my roommate’s hair in college. The first time was the charm. The second and last was a disaster. Be thankful that I didn’t cut your hair.
