Dear Truffles were getting to look like a "Woolly Mammoth" (although he's really become lean) with his curly hair growing so long. So we had to take him and Lily to get groomed today. You wouldn't say it when you look at him now, but when he doesn't have his Schnauzer cut, he doesn't look much like one at all. For starters, the curly hair then the soft coat (not at all wiry like his sister's or other Scnhauzers) and it seems like he is really big for a miniature Schnauzer. We saw one the other day at the seaside, he was half the size of Truffles! I really do hope that he has stopped growing.
He is still enjoying his sister's company. Although, when she gets into his sleeping crate, he gets a bit grumpy - and she just loooves going in there and making herself comfortable! They run and play a lot and for inside dogs, they are pretty much outside most of the day! Our garden of course isn't any more, the little patch of grass is now non-existant and the rest of it is full of digging holes. As these two digs holes and then try and buries toys in it. Sometimes the toys just gets put into the hole - like the balls and kept there without closing the hole. But mostly it is just a fun pastime for these two!!
Well, here is my beautiful Truffles, all spiffy!
Here the two of them trying their very best to impress with sitting and lying down and staying - all to get some treats!!
They came from the parlour with bows - just after I told one lady that they don't put bows on our Schnauzers as bows are so beneath Schnauzers -hehehehehe!! That'll teach me! (Schnauzer-snob!)
However, the bows didn't last very long. Oh-wel.
Have a wonderful Spring, Truffles and Lily! - And of course the Southern Hemisphere!
