SOPHIE

Sophie has just had her annual haircut.  She is a Labrador Retriever cross and so has longer hair.  Last year it was trimmed very short and she ended up with sunburn so we asked for it to be left slightly longer this year.



She wasn't in the mood for having her photo taken.  My cellphone tells me it is 30 degrees today.  Although I think it is slightly less than that it is still hot.  It must be a bit cooler for her though.

  1. Sophie must be grateful for the summer trim!

    1. I am sure she is. She gets hosed down as well to help keep her cool.

  2. About the same down here, too hot to do anything outside for now. Short back and sides, must be cooler for her.

  3. Yes I bet our pets are hotter this Summer, my parents had a labrador they use to be careful with her too.

    1. Unfortunately showing her age and her early life of neglect could also be giving her problems.

  5. She'll be feeling better. It's been about the same here in Blenheim..and has just started raining steadily

    1. Yes, she is but when Doug got her she was going to be put down as no-one wanted her. She spent her first five years on a deck - no exercise, no vet checks and, obviously, flies as she hates them and will head indoors if one is nearby.
