Our Bichon Frises are cute, but by the end of the winter their fur, no matter how much it is washed, starts to take on that 'doggy smell'. Bichons have a thick under coat that sheds off and is trapped by the top coat, thus they don't leave dog hair all over. We have to brush their thick curls to pull out the trapped hair, or they developed large matted areas. I don't have their fur trimmed in the winter b/c they need the warmth...but come spring we are all ready for them to get their fur thoroughly washed and cut. Today was day for those haircuts.
Before- I call them wooly sheep dogs
After - all clean and spiffy
Now that the days are getting warmer, we have enjoyed exploring more of the outside of our new house. The other day I took my camera out and took some pictures of the girls on the trampoline.
Lydia thought Maia would enjoy jumping, too. She didn't.
We laughed at Lydia's pose in this picture...we thought she looked like she was going to squish a monster sized bug.
