Chloe, my shih tzu got spayed on Oct. 1st. I delayed taking her to the groomer because she needed to heal up. By the time I took her to Rennet, of Topknot and Tails, she was a total stinky matted up mess. When I picked her up four hours later she smelled great, totally relaxed, clean with a nice short cut. Wow, didn't even look like the same puppy. Two days later I left her in the backyard for about 15 minutes while I ran over to the neighbors. When I got back, I let her in. Later she came and sat in my lap for some me time. As I was petting her I noticed lumps all over her. OMG I immediately thought of wasps. Turns out she was covered in miniature burrs. Well I got about 18 to 20 of them out of her hair. Still have 5 to go on her ears. Decided to wait until tomorrow, she was freaking out and couldn't hold still any longer. Reminds me of when the kids were toddlers. I would give them a bath, shampoo their hair, attempt to clean their teeth, get nice fresh jamas on, put them to bed and then they'd poop themselves. So tomorrow, I need to get the rest of the burrs out, find and kill the plant she got into.
