Meet “Brooklyn”, our Saint…taking her early mid afternoon siesta.

Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow.

We got soooo much accomplished this weekend.  One thing was getting them dogs shaved.  Unfortunately, I lost my Livestock Sheers (seriously, they’re for cows) that I use on Brooklyn.  Uhhhhh.  So I had to shave her the hard way with the dog clippers.  (So rather than a 1 hour shave, it was 3 1/2 hours split into two days – the clippers get hot and need a rest, lol)  The good thing is that she sleeps through it.  The loud snoring is actually relaxing.

Our Saint Is No Saint

 Okay, we seem to have a new issue in our house.  It comes in the form of our 150 pound Saint.

Somehow, she picked up some bad habits. 

Our poor neighbors cannot grill in peace…she wakes from a dead sleep and has the sudden need to go outside.  I think she can smell the lighter fluid in her sleep.  This is where she sits…begging for a burger.  She ‘yips’ quietly like a dog of the smaller persuasion…until someone throws her a scrap.    (Cryin as if we don’t feed her)  She sat here for 30 minutes before we could get her inside.   (Trust me, there’s not much you can threaten a dog this big with…to come inside.  And don’t try to physically remove her…she lays down and won’t move) maviefolle-553maviefolle-554

 Then there’s the issue of INside the house.   Dog chews are kept under the kitchen sink.  Here she is helping herself when someone left the door open.

And when someone is looking for something to eat in the fridge?  She’s gotta stick her big ol head in there and have a look too.   And when she knows there’s leftover steak or chicken in there?  She sleeps next to the fridge door so that when it’s opened, she’ll be right there incase any leftovers ‘fall’ out.
