Tours, and dog transformations

So, this is my grandmas Maltese puppy, she weighs approximately 2 pounds & yet she has dubbed herself my grandmas protector. It's rather cute actually she has no sense that nothing about her would bring terror to an intruder, but hey we will enjoy watching her think that. (( DISCLAIMER )) I did NOT cut this dogs hair, it was to my mother & grandmothers horror that they paid money to have their thorough bred Maltese chopped as if a 2 yr old had done it. But with the move, and many things going on she got dirty, and her tears were stained which is common in this breed. Grandma kept saying " poor puppy, poor puppy, you look as though no one cares for you " I decided to open Zaundia's salon, while she was sleeping I brought the dog downstairs, stuck her in a large sink...... much to her dismay, and scrubbed, and scrubbed some more. I went and bought her a rhinestone name tag with the dogs NEW address, and a cute pink collar. Now I could NOT find a little bow, so I had to use an adults bow, but hey you work with what you got( it lasted as long as it took to take the picture ). When grandma woke up you should of seen her smile, she hugged me, & the dog and said " she's white again, she's white again. " And the PINK additions were NOT lost on her, she loved loved loved it. I felt like I had bought her a brand new car, it was a good day ! The dog is white, with a pink collar, grandma is happy, & we finished the day off with a drive around the city so she didn't feel like a visitor, but rather a resident. The nice part about that is,6 she had no need to get out of the car. She remarked the whole drive how green, clean, and how gorgeous Duluth is. After that, I hung her pictures on the wall, letting her know this is HER home. The newly cleaned dog, and grandma went to bed with big smiles, and I find myself having one myself. ~ Z
