We celebrated by having him weighed, shaved and taking him to the dog park to play with his buddies.
Wash is a healthy boy (who got into some poison ivy recently), weighing 52.5 lbs and shaggy as a carpet. So we went for a nice trim. Wash had a romp in the woods recently and didn't like the post-walk brushing I had to do to get out all of the knots in his matted hair. He's been overheating a bit recently so I thought it was about time to cut his hair.
BEFORE- Scruff-burn
AFTER- Washed-burn!!!
Apparently he was very nervous on the grooming table and wasn't very co-operative while having his legs trimmed. Silly boy. The groomers were also very surprised when he started eating the hair they had trimmed off of him. (I guess I had forgotten to tell them he LOVES hair... gross)
And, as if he knew that he had just turned 8 months old he took his first leg-up "Big Dog Pee".
He's getting to be a big guy. Gentle giant, sweet, loving and incredibly social.
Advanced training starts in July!!!
