Oz and Gull go to the groomer plus a bike ride (pics and video)

[ParNone]

I took Oz and Gull to get groomed yesterday. Trying to reduce some of the shedding. It's like lil' tribbles, multiplying faster then I can get rid of it off the floor. I'm a lil' disappointed though, because the groomer didn't wash their faces and she didn't do a good job on their nails either. So after paying $100, I have to finish up cleaning their faces and clipping their nails. They were extremely stressed when they got home too. So don't think I'll be going back there. Anywho, here's a few pics of'em after the big day. They are vedy happy to be home.











Few more to come...

Here they are zonked out. *Whew* grooming is hard work apparently. Notice the lil' swirl of dog hair around Gull, hence the need for grooming.





Murph trying to figure out why nobody wants to play with him.



And here's a lil' video of Oz and Gull bike riding. They were none too thrilled at first with the whole bike concept. I had to just walk the bike around the block with them beside it for a few days. Finally got up to where I could actually ride the bike. We stopped traffic one day, everybody, even a policeman, had to watch Oz and I bike by. Must have been a slow TV day.

Bike Ride

That's it!

Great pictures! I love your dogs, they are just beautiful. My husband got me a really nice bike for Christmas, my son got me the Springer. I have taken all three of my fur kids out on it. Ebony and Diamond do wonderful on it. I have taken Jada twice on it. The first time went great. The second time not so great. We were riding along when I saw this little pom coming at us. Instead of getting off the bike and walking past the pom like I should have, I started going faster thinking we would make it by the dog. WRONG!!

The pom came to the front of the bike, Jada hit the front of the tire trying to get to it. When Jada hit the front tire of course it stopped the bike. Omg, I hit the pavement so hard. My head was bleeding, I was pretty scraped up. I was laying in the middle of the road. Jada is so strong that she broke right off the Springer. I was so scared I would look up to see Jada tearing into the little pom. Those two were romping and playing. I haven't gotten the courage up to take Jada on the bike again. I'm not sure I ever will.

OMG! I love Oz and Gull so much. They look so cute in their bandanas awwwwwwww!

Great pictures, they all look so handsome

I liked the video too! But HOW did you do it?? Lol. My dad made me a springer like attachment and I LOVE it! It is the only thing that can wipe Jack out without too much effort on my part

Once again, it was great to see your Collie boys (and that lil glimse of Murph)!

Par, your pictures and videos are alway terrific!!! I loved these and they are no exception! I had to laugh at Murph looking for playmates only to find them all tuckered out. LOL! The video was awesome and your choice of music is always so appropriate! I was thinking that if I hooked Bella up to my bike and she saw a squirrel we'd be doing 60 mph and I'd be screaming *Help me, I want to get off!*

Sorry to hear about the bad job the groomers did, I had that happen once before (felt like I spent that much to come home and do the job myself). But they do look fabulous!

He he and I love the swirl of hair...we get those all the time

What a terrific video! I really want to know how you did that, makes me want to try it!

The pom came to the front of the bike, Jada hit the front of the tire trying to get to it. When Jada hit the front tire of course it stopped the bike. Omg, I hit the pavement so hard.

Oh gosh, that sounds terrible. Can't say I blame you for not wanting to try it again.
We had a similar thing happen but the dog kept chasing us and biting at Roxey, I just yelled "FASTER ROXEY" and we outran the other dog

They are breathtaken adorable..

Such handsome doggies, and the picture of Murph looking for playmates amogst the zonked-out collies is too precious. Miss Hoppy is nearing the end of her spring "big shed" - bunnies shed madly twice a year - and I look at the huge amount of fur one not-even-four-pound rabbit can produce, and feel your pain with two doggies more than ten times her size!

They are so gorgeous, I love love love them!

[Ginger's Mom]

I think your boys look extremely handsome. And I am laughing at poor little Murph, wondering what happened to the big guys. (I just love that little guy.) The video is great, it looks like both of the boys have that bicycling down just right.

[Riptide]

awwww! you make me want a collie! such gorgeous dogs!

Very Cute!

Oz and Gull look very nice after their grooming, they look cute in matching bandanas. I like the video! I like it how you add music to all of them, too!
