BY THE HAIR OF THEIR CHINNY CHIN CHINS

Jan 23

            The remaining three Icys have lost their whiskers. Everyone was very good. Shiloh was very calm through the whole process and Trick and Treat were troopers. I was able to get the clippers up behind Shiloh’s ears and he wasn’t very worried, but Trick and Treat aren’t quite ready for that yet. All of them tried to eat the clippers and stood quiet for me to clip their faces and to rub it up and down their necks. Because of  the thickness and dampness of the hair on the kids, it was slow going. By the time I finished with them, they were pretty bored with the whole process. I’m very proud of them and have taken some ‘before’ and ‘after’ pictures of their faces. The cool thing is that they have very cute faces. They look less chunky than they did. I love to rub them all over their foreheads and faces and they seem to like it as well.
            Bleu continues to move better. He is trotting most of the time now instead of tolting all the time. His canter has improved and he seems to be much more animated in general. It’s harder to tell him and Shiloh apart now.
