Who is this dog?!

Do you recognize her? It's hard to believe, but she IS Moxie!
Last week and this week have both been SO HOT. Moxie has a lot of fur, so I felt very bad for her when I took her outside. She did not like the heat at all, and all of that fur that she had must have made it unbearable.

I looked into how much it would cost to have her groomed, and the lowest price I could find was $30. With lots of money going into the basement, I decided I would save us some money by grooming her myself. I bathed her, dryed her with my blowdryer (yes, I did!), brushed and cut her hair. She looks SO different! Wheaten Terriers lose most of the black puppy fur on their face and ears as they get older, so a lot of black came off with her first haircut.
I'm not saying it was easy, and the results weren't perfect, but not too bad. And Moxie still loves me, lol. (I definitely have a new respect for the job that groomers do.) So, to save $30, I'll probably do it again. :)
