I just had this genius idea.
I got home from work, planned to do some homework and mop the floor.
Picked up my dog to give her a cuddle and ... Her fur is matted.... Better yet, dirty and matted.
So I thought, hmm... Can't wash it while it's matted, it will make it worse, so we'll give her a shave. But the clippers wouldn't go through the matts (It's possible that the reason for that is that they are the most CRAPTASTIC clippers on the planet, but the jury is still out on that one), so we had to do it with scissors.
If anyone ever suggests to you, a cat lover, that you should get a small dog because "they're just like a cat", be aware that they lie, and they hate you with the fire of 1000 suns.
Cats are self-cleaning. They brush, wash and condition THEMSELVES. And if you observe closely, you can see that they don't even fight themselves a little bit when doing so. Dogs are not. Dogs seem to think that anyone trying to do these tiresome dhores for them is the devil and must be destroyed.
Did I mention my dog is a maltese-shitsu? Yeah, not too much fur there....
She's now sporting a jaunty 1cm all over do. Which may or may not be uneven. I say drink more beer and it will look great.
