Bella and Ripley on grooming day

Hey! A girl has to have her dignity! ;) But wet or dry, Bella is a beaute! Pam, I'm so impressed with what a great job you do with the clippers!!! The Ripster is quite a character! I especially love the shot of him and Andy! How funny! :D

Great pics, and beautiful kids.:)

Awwwww!!!

We've waited sooo long for Pics of your 2....
They are Gorgeous...Wet & Dry!!!
I Just Love Bellas' Face in that one!!!!

I use one of those decorative rug/mats that have the rubber back and the flat rug fabric upper part. Mine is about 30" x 20" and yes, I too groom on the kitchen table. It is the perfect height and has room for the grooming supplies, although my dogs wouldn't be standing/sitting/lying down there without one arm restraining them.:rolleyes:

These pictures are simply wonderful, Pam. *The Zoomies* - in our house that is referred to as *Going Crackers*, but I think that *The Zoomies* is more specifically descriptive of the after bath kind. :D

What I want to know is how you have the energy to tackle two dogs on the same day? Just the thought of doing one makes me exhausted.

AWW, Thanks everybody. :) Bella and Ripley have forgiven me after reading all of your nice notes. :) Jen, thank you for your excellent idea about making the table less slippery. It has been a problem at at times and I will certainly heed your advice! Rachel now that I know you do it too I am not as embarrassed. :o The first time we put the dogs on the table it looked really strange, I must admit!! I am sure that Trevor and Andy were rather miffed as we are always making them get off and here we actually lifted *the dawgs* right up. :)

Rachel, I don't often do them both on the same day - only on the days when I am doing faces, feet and tails. When they get their whole body groom it is one-at-a-time for sure! :)

Jazzcat, I will dig out some kittie pictures if you will dig out some Disney pictures! :p :p

Bella, you really do look cute, even when you are all wet :). And Ripley, what a handsome boy you are. Hard to believe you were ever a knotted mess, considering how stunning you look now. (Brothers always like to give you a hard time ;).)

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU PAM!

I've been waiting and you came through;)

Such wonderful pictures of the two of them and what a terrific job you do grooming!
I must say I adore Bella wet, I love wet curls:D
And Ripley does look like a good boy sitting there so well behaved while you take pictures, way to go Ripster!

Thanks again for sharing those two beauties of your Pam (don't make us wait so long next time:p )

Pam, youy knoiw how much I love your two!:) They'll brighten up any room! Excellent job on grooming Bella and Ripley, too! Thanks for sharing all the great pics, too!;)

Yay! Wet doggies!!! I love seeing pics of your poodle kids!!

I'm impressed with your grooming....I love wet curly dogs....You have gorgeous pups...I'm looking forward to the next batch of pics....:p
