Super cool shades.
We like to keep up our hipster rap. š
You had a seizure Elsa? Mom gets them occasionally too. Stress is a biggie for those. Live long and Prosper is what your sign off said to me. I donāt read properly. Perhaps I need glasses.
Your selfie was wonderful. You looked liked an actress in your sunglasses.

Yeah, Iām an epileptic-warrior. We know about the impact of stress and this grooming was extra stressful. Iām better though today. Hope your mama doesnāt suffer often from seizures. We work hard to eat properly and keep stress low. I like your idea of āLive Long and Prosper.ā Itās pawsome advice! š
Elsa, you should party after you get your grooming too! Happy weekend to all of you!
I had a seizure so mom is keeping me calm for a while (there was a dog who was waiting to be picked up at the spa whose high pitch bark never stopped for 45 minutes. Really stressed me out but Iām better today.
Can we party with you, Elsa?!?! We bet you know how to have a good time!
In ways you canāt even imagine! š¤£
You rock, Elsa! Looking very cool! We are with youā¦so glad it is the weekend!
Many thanks, Dorothy. Elsaās spa treatment went awry as the stress from another dog how could not be consoled while it was waiting to e picked up must have affected her and she had a tiny seizure that we were able to stem in about 5-6 minutes (her shortest one yet). Thank you for sharing the occipital pressure technique (I think I picked that up from you). Iām convinced utilizing it made all the difference in the world on this latest episode. We love your website and radio program and have learned soooo much from you and Gibson. Thank you again! š
We canāt wait to see you āafterā shot, we donāt see how you could look any cooler!
xoxo,
Jakey, Arty & Rosy
Aww, youāre too kind. The stress caused me to have a teeny tiny seizure (smallest one to date) but Iām resting comfortably now. Mom canāt stop petting my velvety fur.
Your fur-iend,
Elsa š¾
Pawty on, Elsa!
Itās always a pawty with this girl!
Elsa, you look so cool! You look also that you have washed your new perm for the first timeš.
Have a great weekend!

Not when mom took that photo. Wait till you see me now-I look live black velvet with a skinny nose. š
Your fur-iend,
Elsaš¾
Elsa, I am waiting to see you now.
Kosmo
Hopefully my mama will showcase me before she leaves on vacation this week. Iāll pester her and tell her my fans expect no less. Happy weekend, Kosmo. š
Thank you Elsa, have a nice weekend too.
You could say to mama that I am your admirer.

Good idea. She seems very easy to manipulate after compliments like that. LOL
Glad the grooming went well and she is all soft, pretty, and smelling good. Itās great that they seem to forgive and forget when we make them do things they arenāt thrilled about.
Grooming is particularly hard on Elsa. I doubt sheāll ever really get over her fears but weāre patient with her to make it as stressless as possible.
Poor baby. At least it sounds like the trauma was over once she got home.
Sheās resilient and treats with loads of attention make all the difference. And an extended dash chasing a squirrel down the alley š¬
Bonus chases are great!!!
That girl has a set of wheels and drives the Akita next door nuts. I love it when she gives him the what for!
We are supposed to rain all weekend so it will be an indoor weekend for us
hugs
Hazel & Mabel
Oooh, rain would be nice even if wet. Itās been so long, Iām not sure what a spring rain feels like.
Happy weekend.
Woos ā Lightning, Misty,and Timber
Happy weekend to you guys š
You look too cool to ever drool Elsa! ;p
We bet you will look pretty amazing after your trip to the groomerās. Wilhelmina always does . . . that is for about five seconds until she finds water or a mud puddle on her daily adventures ;p
the critters in the cottage xo
Sheās like black velvet, all soft and pretty. And smells amazing!
So in other words, Elsa is letting her hair hang down š
3 bum swings! 3 more!š
Have a wagnificient weekend my furiends.
Nose nudges,

Thatās about the size of it! š¤£
Canāt wait for the āafterā photos! Stay strong Elsa and make sure you get all the promised goodies.
Poor thingā¦she handled it as well as sheās able but yesterdayās visit was not a treat for her. She was super thrilled to be at home though, racing around the house tossing and squeaking a favorite toy to remind her all is well now. š
Enjoy all that beautiful fur while you can Elsa! Canāt wait to see your new look.
There was enough to make another dog!
You look so cool Elsa!
Thanks, itās a Ninja thing.
LOL!
Poodles wear neck scarves with aplomb.
They sure know how to rock fashion accessories, donāt they?
š¬
Oh Elsa, youāre in for a treat! Not. But if you play your cards right, maybe you can con some extra rewards out of your Mom afterwards. š
There will definitely be loads of treats for this groom job. Her fur is like a bear this time and waay too thick for me to handle. I feel sorry for the groomer.
Kissyās hair was really thick, too, when she was young. But, as she aged and it thinned out, I was able to do her grooming myselfā¦just as well, since she became a bit stressed when the groomer came to the house in her mobile āshopā. She was fine for me, though.
Iāve been cleaning her up in between sessions but with two of them it gets a bit pricey. I decided to treat myself. Luckily our professional groomer allows me to stay with Elsa in case she has seizure. That helps alleviate my stress level as much as hers. š
Thatās a good thing! ā¤ļø
Iām ever grateful they accommodate both of us. š
By the look of those red eyes, she already partied on Thursday night.
Every day is a āpaw-tyā for this girl.
Elsaās Mom is so cool she needs to wear shades! š
More likely able to spend time fiddling with LunaPic than cool. LOL Happy weekend!
Good luck on the grooming. Er, I mean good luck to Monika, not Elsa.:) Remember, Elsa, Ninjas have to be sleeeeek.
Iām hiring out this time. Her fur is like a bear and much too thick for me to try and handle. š
Looking forward to a weekend of preparing for family to come visit. NOT. LOL. Love my family, just donāt love cleaning the house. XD
No one likes cleaning the house but think of the payoff when the family is there. Enjoy their visit! š
So true! š
I agree. Let the weekend begin.
Have a woof woof day. My best to your peeps. ā„
Have a furbulous weekend!
We are having an Indian Summer. Itās supposed to be Autumn (Fall) but Mother Nature does not seem to have gotten the message and itās still 35 ā 38c. Anyway, Elsa the Ninja looks good ā she even makes the shades look good. I wish Benji would still long enough for me to take that kind of photograph ( There you go, Sam! Heās not perfect!!!)
Luckily thereās PhotoShop for adding glasses on wiggly pups and Ninjas. š
Yay yay for the weekend!
Amen!
I bet you will look furtabulous after your grroming appointmentā¦ have a super weekend!!!!
We can only hope. Sheās such a Muppet now-happy weekend.
To borrow from Will Smith . .
Elsa makes those shades look goood!
Sheās a pretty hip Ninja if I do say so myself even if she has no idea of the full spa treatment awaiting her. {Chortle}
Haha!
Lucky girl . . I wish I had a surprise spa treatment, lol.
Youāve never bathed a Standard Poodle, have you? Thereās nothing fun about thatā¦for the bather or the bathee.
Iām speaking of the spa I am envisioning. Where I would get to luxuriate in just sitting still . . bliss.
Stillness. Always a good thing.
Yee-haw yes! The Poodle and I just came in from a lovely walk. A bit longer than usual this morning in anticipation of SNOW tomorrow. Dreaming of springā¦.š©š¬
Iām dreaming of spring too but more like a spring storm to get rid of the dust that has been blowing around. š Letās hope we both have our dreams fulfilled. Happy weekend.
