Sparky-b/4 & after..

I also like Sparky both ways

Sparky, you should have told your Mom to wait until the weather is warmer. The way this year has gone, there could be another batch of snow and cold - do you have a snowsuit?

Yippee, the photo thread that was promised!

Oh my Sparky, you had quite the winter coat on you! That must have felt nice in the cold January weather, but now we are into the 40's most days. You won't be needing that.

You must feel lighter! Does it through off your balance? My Marlin Darlin has balance issues to begin with, and he looks "drunk" after I remove his winter coat, ha haaa. Only for 3 or 4 minutes and then he adjusts.

It is nice to see your lovely eyes, Sparky!

Hi Myndi, sweet of you to step into the frame!

You are adorable either way! But you look fresher in the after pic.

You look wonderful with you new haircut but, like others have already said, you also look cute with all that fluff too.

Omg---can't believe Sparky can grow that much hair. I thought he was pretty cute with his winter coat but that new look makes him look a lot more like himself. Bet you won't have any trouble keeping him groomed now. When I saw how much hair was gone I was thinking of his cute little sweaters too.
Glad Myndi sneaked herself in one of the pictures...after all Ma , I'm cute too

I just love that sign for the door. just what every dog household needs .
Give Sparky a big hug and tell him not to worry, that hair will grow back

It's me again - the much improved looking Sparky~~~~~~~~~~~~

To those of you that thought I looked cute with my heavy coat - well those before pics just didn't do justice to how scruffy I really was. You couldn't see the knots and matts - YUK! Mom says that when I scratch an itch and my toenails get caught in my fur and I can't get my leg loose - then I'm overdue for a cut.

I look funny as heck hobbling around on 3 legs, with the other foot caught in my fur! When my fur gets a little long, Mom says I look like a teddy bear - all cute and cuddly - but I was way beyond the cute look - even I have to admit that!

And yup - I was cold too! I was laying at Mom's feet last night, just shivering like I was outside in a snowstorm, so Mom put a sweater on me. Much better!

Nope, Auntie Sandie - no balance problems here. When I get gussied up, I feel so much better, and blitz around like crazy and act like a goof!

And Auntie Helen, Mom says she'll NEVER get tired of me. Of course, a visit isn't out of the question.......

And to everyone who posted such nice comments - a BIG - "THANK YOU".

Love and Licks,
Sparky-Doodle

Oops ---BUSTED!!!

I'm not supposed to get up on the furniture, unless I'm invited to get up and sit with one of my people, or if they say that it's okay.

However ------ every time right after I have been to the spa, I forget my manners and just jump up and get cozy wherever and whenever I feel like it.

See???? - Mom caught me again. But at least she let me stay there......

You'll notice that I've got my sweater on too~~~~~~BRRRRR
