I couldn't stand the cone on Finn anymore. He was miserable and so was I so I got a pair of my grandson's underwear and put them on him. I had done this with Yankee before so I knew it would work. I wasn't sure that Finn would keep them on because he is a feisty little guy. Well he is keeping them on during the day but for the last 2 mornings we found the underwear on the floor.

Well Finn made it through his neutering just fine. His baby teeth actually fell out on their own over the weekend so no teeth pulled.

He's just 5 months so I feel kinda bad but she said it has to be done ASAP so he goes in on Tuesday morning.



He's now… Continue

I took Finn for a grooming. I'm OK with the body but his head looks gargantuous. They left it all poofy. His head doesn't look right on his body. I may try to fix it or take him back. What I did notice was that he has a ton of colours in his coat. His head is red with blond highlights on his face. His body is chocolate and his tail is chocolate with blond highlights.



The groomer said he was starting to grow his winter adult coat but I thought it was too soon for that. He is only 5… Continue
