Time for a haircut!

It's been so hot in the last week and Daisy hasn't been enjoying it, so it was fortunate that her 7 week regular haircut was due on Friday morning. I'm not sure she would agree with me, if she could talk, as she doesn't enjoy having baths or anyone touching her feet.

We are lucky that the dog groomer lives at the bottom of our road, or so I thought until now! Daisy definitely knew that something was up on Friday morning and was reluctant to walk down the road. So a walk that should take no time at all, took an age, with Daisy stopping to take interest in every smell! Westland Highland Terriers are lovely dogs with a wonderful disposition, but one of their failings is they can be very stubborn!

Her appointment was almost at the same time as the time the bus was due, and as we approached the bus stop I noticed a friend in the queue. I explained that Daisy was off to have her hair cut and everyone else standing waiting for the bus suddenly became interested in us too and followed our progress!

Having left Daisy at the groomers I retraced my steps to be greeted with applause when I reached the bus stop! I am happy to report that when I picked Daisy up she was very smart and did the journey home in record time - but this time we didn't have the audience!
