My husband  isn't on DK but I am so proud of him and I wanted to share. This weekend we groomed all 3 dogs! And the coolest part was he did Jake almost entirely by himself! I am so proud of him. I really enjoy seeing their bond growing. After I washed and dried/groomed Brisby and Pickles, we started on Jake and he brushed him, washed him, dried him and clipped his body and 1/2 way down his legs. He was nervous about the face, tail area and feet so I chose to call it a day and teach him the rest next weekend. 

And the coolest thing-of our three doods, Jake was the best, calmest, and confident on the table! The process with all 2 took a decent part of the weekend's morning and afternoon and the kids did a great job of quietly playing by themselves or giving us tools when we needed them. Great family effort. And afterward, hubby was so proud of Jake's clip, we took him to Lowes with us to get gardening supplies.

I can't tell you all how happy I am that my husband is bonding with Jake. He always wanted "a dog" of his own and was afraid is wasn't a dog person. I'm attaching a picture of Jake post groom and one of the gang. My husband is not big on being in pictures so I was unable to get one with him and Jake. Thanks for listening to the journey of Jake. Moments like this make it worth it. Especially when I was really only planning on Brisby and Pickles.

And thanks for letting me gush about hubby. :)

The pics are wonderful, and I love the head tilts!

That is awesome that your husband groomed Jake, and it sounds like you made the grooming a wonderful family time. 

Doing two is plenty of work for one person, so having help with the third is just a big blessing! I end up doing mine months apart and haven't tried to do both in one day, you are very patient!
