Mya's Christmas Haircut

When Mya gets a haircut, she goes a little wacky after. She runs around the house and fights with her toys. Then she settles down. These were taken in order after the haircut.


Mom, stop taking pictures of me!


There, are you happy? Yes, I now have eyes.


Why do I have to do this every year?

Ok, here's my head-tilt-cute-face!Do you think that she's thinking about how much she loves her new doo? Probably not!

Part 1 of my gift

For Christmas, my parents send each of us money. Every year, I buy things that I wouldn't normally buy myself. The first thing I thought I would start with this year are new grooming scissors and thinning shears. The closest good dog supply store is in Oakville and I don't like driving out there unless there is a good reason, so I went looking for a hair stylist's store. I found this cool place in Whitby. Did you know that the industry charges more for dog grooming supplies than human grooming supplies? Actually, I'm not surprised at all.
Now, with the rest of the money I want to get a new book and probably a new pair of black boots, oh, and maybe some new gloves!
I will be grooming Mya tomorrow and can't wait to try the new supplies out.

The Mud Beard

Well, cosidering the ground was covered with snow, I was a little surprised to find Mya at the door with a Mud Beard! She was digging under the tree for something and seemed to be having a ball doing it. Needless to say she also had a nice bath today.

A Great Day (Non Schnauzer)

We were invited to an event called Uncle Neil and Friends Annual Toy Mountain Show. We invited our friends and their son to come along with us. What a lot of fun it was. Great music and the kids loved all the activities. Everyone had to bring an unwrapped toy. In total, including all the corporate donations and donation dropoffs plus what was brought today, there were over 1500 toys!!! Imagine that.
Thank you Christie, Neil and Alex Haden for inviting us to come along. We will be there next year for sure!
