G'day maties,
Notice how handsome I look in the photo below. This photo was taken this morning, BEFORE I went to the groomer.
Now don't be shocked. The next photo is the end result of my grooming session. I'M A FREAK
My groomer is only new and this is the first time he trimmed us without the help of our old groomer. Why oh why did she leave...................
When D saw how I looked she took immediate action. She got the clippers out and fixed the toilet brush that is my face. It still isn't perfect but D says my hair will grow back and next time they will give the groomer stricked instructions plus a diagram!!! You think I look bad, you should have seen Lucy. She looked the same when she came out as when she went in......see the video below for proof. Strewth....D had to clip Lucy herself when we got home.
At least he got Tess & Willow right.
During the week a very special visitor arrived.
You're not going to believe it but Lacie dropped in from Africa.
Lacie: Ahhhh that's so comfy Noah. You're so handsome. Shame the groomer totally stuffed up your face.
Noah: LACIE.....D fixed it, can't you tell?
Lacie: Oh yeah, sure Noah (Lacie kisses Noah's toilet brush face). D did a
Lacie: Let me make you a smoothie Noah, it'll make ya feel better
Lacie: Gosh the view is awesome from up here. Now come on Noah, it's not that bad
Hi everyone it's me D. Ok so it's not the real Lacie, it's a Lacie look-a-like. This wonderful stuffie arrived during the week. A very special thank you goes to Lacie's mum 'Mumsie' for sending me this amazing gift. It's a Steiff Lakeland called Terry but we are calling it Lacie2. It's quiet old for a stuffie, circa 1950. I have to keep it safe, away from the likes of Lucy & Tess who have the ability to end it's life in minutes. Thanks Marilyn, I love it!!!!!!!!

Holy crap! Isn't a proper terrier cut required to graduate grooming school? Good thing D was there to tidy things up. You look a fright.
That little Lacie2 seems a bit more manageable than the real thing.

Oh my goodness Noah what did that groomer do to you? You poor chap. Perhaps he held the clippers the wrong way round!
Have to say you are looking as handsome as ever now.
Little Lacie looks very pretty, what a wonderful gift.

Noah,
Bless your poor 'dale heart! I, too, have had a very, very bad airecut, so I know exactly how you feel! I was shorn down to the skin! Mama was beyond distraught! D did a very good job shaping you up! You are still so handsome!! I bet Lacie's visit cheered you up, too! That girl is a mess! :)
Love,
janie
Oh dear!! That groomer needs a lesson or two, I think!! Hope your fluff grows back soon!

Grr! Why do groomers have a hard time with us terriers? It'll be better next time... or get your money back and buy treats ;)
I hope that doesn't happen to me when I go to the groomer's next week!
We've had that look around here a few times. It's called a bad h'aire day!
Ha! You think your new haircut is bad, you should see Paris'. She's totally nekkid!
And I hope Lacie didn't walk all over you. BOL!
Thank goodness for D! Doesn't this groomer know that you have a blog and always need to be looking your very best, Noah?!
Lacie2 is just too cute! What a nice gift!
Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch
You coud of fooled us! We thought that it was your new baby brutha. He looks just like you!
Take good care of him now and don't squeeeze the stuffin out of him!
Luv,
Riley and Star.
If you think you look odd you should have seen the haircut the Big Red Guy got that had to be fixed. You fluffy face looked 1000% better than his head.
Watch out for Lacie's teeth.
A small, silent, stuffed Lacie is the best kind!
You're still a big handsome brute!
Your pal,
Petey
You all still look precious to us, bad haircut or not. Ironically enough, we had a similar experience with Benson last month, this groomer did a total HACK JOB on him, the poor dog, he looks naked, even his tail got shaved...

The more I read these kinds of posts, the happier I am to be ME!
Now THAT is a Lacie I khould handle!

PeeEssWoo: That is furry khool of Mumsie!
Hi - thank goodness D was around! We know she's tried being your groomer before but stopped because it took a lot of time, but we think you should re-employ her again as she obviously knows what she's doing more than the so-called professionals.
Hey - we love Lacie2! We loved the chat she had with you Noah, soooo cute! Great photos as usual!! :)

I think you looked fine before you went to the groomer! Very handsome and furry. I keep telling my mom it's a waste of money that could be used for treats.
I'm not sure what groomers are thinking when they do the 'toilet brush' style - you see it a lot and it's not nice! Good thing D was able to fix things up.
Love the stuffie. Kay is crazy about Steiff toys and has a bunch that she hides from me - they are very old and valuable and she's worried I might shred them. Lacie2 is in excellent condition - very nice.
cheers,
Ruby
Sorry. We're just a little preoccupied as we leave this comment. You brought up sore recent memories. (Like five minutes ago.) A boy dog not to be named chewed up a feltie stuffie that Moma has been working on for months! It WAS a Yorkie stuffie for Moma's moma. And there have been some HBO words shared with it (it's lots harder for Moma to make that a square dog) ANYHOW, sorry for the self-centeredness of this comment...but that vintage Lacie just brought it all on. PUT YOURS UP HIGH (says Jake!)
Love,
the one in the doghouse and Fergi xxoo
Oh Noah, no matter what they do to you, we still love you!!
Now that D fixed you up, things really don't look so bad anymore.
The toilet brush thing happened to our friend Riley, too. Our pinkie had to fix him up as soon as he walked through our door.
You know, next time you guys need an Airecut, you should just call on our pinkie. She said, if you'd put her up for the weekend and give her lots of wet beard kisses, she'd fly up...
Noah, I know the cut is not up to your standards, but you still look handsome to me! When I saw Lacie, I thought I had finally figured out how she and everyone else plus their luggage fit into one car.... i though she had been midgetized!
We sure hope your Mom complained about this - it sure makes us glad that the only trimming our Mom allows on us is the fur between our pads. But you are all still beautiful to us.

Hi, Noah!
I guess you were telling that groomer what you think in that video!
Lacie 2 is beautiful!
I know you are going to take good care of her!
Kisses and hugs
Lorenza
Oh silly groomer!! Believe me that real lacie would bust your eardrums! LOL
Well, you had me going there for a while! Africa, I'm thinking, don't they have to go through quarantine? Wow, that's a strange perspective, and doesn't Lacie look small?
Okay, I must be the most naive reader of this blog!
Is that really you Noah! ;-)
Cheers
Charlie
oups.......oui mais je t'aime toujours autant...
Bisous, Faya
Dear Noah, What in the world do they teach groomers about Airedales in groomer school?? We are so glad your D fixed you back up. Our mommy is afraid to take clippers to us, so we are at a groomers mercy! Up here in Idaho Jody is the best. Phoenix we still haven't found a good one.:>(
That Lacie2 is great!! Looks real too!
Smooches, BabyRD & Hootie
Oooops. Your Mummy made a really good job of rectifying things though. That is a nice stuffie ... and so helpful. LIKE!

Oh my Noah...(Lacie spins and giggles....)...I love this new kinda walkin' on the Noah massage, don't you? Good thing we had backrub intruction in nursing school....
As for a bad airecut...who? You guys look as handsome and as bootiful as ever...(is love blind???)
Here, Noah...I have some warm shavin' cream I'm gonna work in a lather and I'LL work on that beard for a minute....just hold still!!!!
Love and kisses,
Lacie...
so glad ya like Lacie2...
NOAH...do not, we repeat, do not let Lacie hold a straight razor ANYWEAR NEAR YOUR CAROTID ARTERY...she's drunk so much diet coke, she's jittery....
Barkies and just lookin' out for ya....
Scruffy and Stan
Thank goodness for D to the rescue! Oh wow, a circa 1950 Lacie? How precious!
arrrrgh! We left a comment and it hasn't come up on the comments, here we go again, sorry if it comes up twice! Blogger playing up methinks!
"Nothing wrong with a toilet brush face, as long as they don't try to use it"
My J was disappointed Lucy didn't lick the screen of the camera, she is sooooooooo missing Lucy's licks!

from warm and sunny Scotland in September!
Noah, you poor boy. At least D managed to fix it for you.
Lacie2 is lovely, our mum has the larger version, which is kept well out our way :(.
Woofs & Wags,
Barney & Storm
Were all of you telling off the groomer? I think that groomer ought to change jobs. Don't worry, Noah. You're so handsome it doesn't matter. Lacy2 is old!
