Drake's Haircut

[DoggiesAreTheBest]

Well, spring is here and the weather is getting to be very warm. Draker is also shedding like crazy! So, it was time for his spring haircut! Drake gets shaved twice a year: spring and summer. It normally takes both Andrew and I to do it. I hold Drake down and keep him busy while Andrew shaves. On average, takes about 4 hours!

Well, on Wednesday, I went out and bought new doggy clippers and shaved Drake. He was very cooperative and the new clippers were FANTASTIC! It took me only 1.5 hours to get the job done!
As always, Drake dwas left with a mane and poof on his tail for the lion look! Grrrrrrr!

Drake looks so handsome.
The clippers sure worred great.

1.5 hours is a LOT shorter than 4 and you
did it all by yourself.

Naked Draker!!!!!:eek:

You look so handsome Drake!!! I bet when it gets hot out not having all of that fur feels goooooooooood!!!!!

[primabella]

Oh he is sooo handsome!! :D :D

[GoldenRetrLuver]

Oh Drake, what did mommy do to you! :p:eek:
You're still as handsome as ever! :D

[Dogz]

Drake, you do look like a lion! :eek:

Still as handsome as ever.

That's nice that you can shave him so he doesn't have to be so warm. We were thinking about doing that to Prince last year (He would have looked so silly!) but it can damage his undercoat so we couldn't. :( The undercoat on Samoyeds are supposed insulate him from the heat also.

I see him saying "Please put the camera away, this is so undignified for a man of my status!"
:D

[slleipnir]

Aww, nakey Draker! He's still as cute as ever!

[shais_mom]

Great Pics of a Nekkid Draker!!!
Kylie can sympathasize Draker!!! :)
But you still look gorgeous!!! :)

[K9soul]

I've never seen a shaved dog look so dignified. I think Drake is the epitome of the word in all his pictures :)

[wolf_Q]

Drake you are Nekkid!! :eek:

[DoggiesAreTheBest]

Well, thank you all for your comments.

I think Drake will be more comfy like this with the warm weather. Plus, most European apartments don't have airconditioning. He looks adorable now! So soft! Like a fleece blanket.

Dear Drake, My mommy called me to the 'puter to see you wiff your new haircut. Isn't it a pain to have to stand there while the hoomans run that buzzing little thing all over your body? I could think of 100 things I would rather be doing when my mom or the groomer lady pulls out those clipper things. I wanted to tell you, though, Drake that you are just as handsome as before. In fact my mommy always tells me, after those clipper things are put away, that I am even prettier than before. Woof! Woof! Drake! You are :cool: no matter how much hair you have! ;)
Love, Bella

:D But Draker, you're gonna feel so much better when it
gets hot sweetie. You are still a handsome doggie.:)

[Tonya]

Whoo hooo, neked Drake! You look handsome! I shave my dogs in the spring also. I can't stand all that shedding!

Drake looks so nice shaved! Ralph was going to pay to have Taggert groomed to see what they would do with him - hmmm, it would be nice if he would look that good after a 'shaving".
