scratch, scratch, scratch

Posted in: General

I have a three-legged dog. Poor girl. It’s the change of season and she’s losing her winter coat. In tufts. Great clouds of hair. It’s everywhere. And it makes her so itchy. Every few steps she has to sit and scratch. Often there’s no time to sit – so she carries on with three legs, using the fourth to scratch as she goes! Sometimes we see furniture vibrating and know there lies beneath a small dog scratching for all she’s worth. Poor, poor girl. Soothing baths (or a quick dip in the pond) seem to relieve the itchiness but not for long. Hopefully the transition to her new wardrobe won’t last too much longer.

    Hey, that’s 4 days in a row you’ve blogged … are you feeling alright? 🙂 Just being cheeky, and sympathies to Miss Maisy.

    I’m a bit late, but have you thought of giving the dog a haircut? A buzzy clippers and 15 minutes and you’ve got one cool (albeit temporarily ugly) dog! My mother used to do that to our dog at the start of summer.
