LOL. Go ahead! As long as it's conducive to dogs/animals, ramble all you want! We're all crazy like that

A tip for the toesies: Trim the hair in between the pads so that hair does not stick out between the individual toes. You can leave the tops of the feet untouched if you like that more show-y look. By the way, her feet are definitely Lhasa! With proper supplement and weekly brushings, you should bring her coat back to pretty good shape. However, shaving a dog at any point in its life can alter the coat for a prolonged period of time and you'll probably have to wait until she starts blowing coat for some serious coat length.

By the nose slant thing, I meant to say that Pekes are supposed to have a gentle sloping from the chin to the top of the forehead:

You see there's a slight "\" shape starting from the chin that slopes gently backward to the forehead because the muzzle extends further than the nose itself. Lhasas, however, do not have this characteristic. If you could get a profile of your girl, that'd help, too, but it's pretty easy to spot

Haha, I'm going edit-crazy today! Anyways, just wanted to add that my dog "smiles" the same way


Gotta love those underbites!
