Back when I broke my leg, I had been long-due a haircut. My humans had literally called up that very morning asking the groomers if they had any appointments. Obviously, having a metallic leg is a slight problem when it comes to grooming as I could not stand up for one second, let alone three hours at that point! So, there went my haircut.
Not that I really needed one on one half of me... The vets had completely shaved me on one side before operating!
That was very early April. Three months later, and all my hair had grown- including the one half that hadn’t been shaved-off in the first place…
Usually, my looks get me absolutely EVERYTHING but, with my wild layer of uneven fluff, they weren't helping as much as normal. Therefore, even though I hate the groomers', I knew the time had come for me to go.
The groomers’ was a traumatic experience to say the least. When my humans returned to pick me up, the groomer told them that I had been doing ‘jumps like I’ve never seen before’. Erm, they’re called Super Jumps, thank you very much. Yup, I had been springing vertically at heights of over five feet to try and break out of the grooming salon. Unfortunately, this technique didn’t quite work out and I was put in a crate with a tiny, white, fluffy doggie- coincidently, my favourite type of dog! No attempts to break out followed.
Overall, the grooming part was horrific, the springing part half-hilarious, half-desperate and the crate part... Well, it was a moment in a crate to remember.
So, here they are, pictures of me modelling my new ‘do:
 |
| Looking rather smart, don't you think? |
 |
| Modelling break! No throwing of the ball, of course... |
 |
| Pleeeeeease give me the ball, Humum... |
 |
| Success! |
 |
| Yup, I'm still rocking 'the Spike'- with my most intelligent facial expression. |
Say Cheese!
Admittedly, my ears still look rather bedraggled but this is because my humans asked for my ears to remain mostly untouched- they love a good ol' ruffle!
Being a model is tough work but I hope you think it paid off. Those humans work me hard!
Talk soon, Jasper x
