The lifespan of the bow above was about 45 minutes and that included the 10 minute ride home from the groomers. Coco goes to the groomer once a month. And she loves going there because she gets treated like a queen. Seriously folks, my dog has a fan club at the local groomer. For example, let me recreate the phone call I made to schedule her grooming.

Groomer: Good Morning!

Lynne with an E: Good Morning…I wanted to see if I can get my dog in for a wash on Saturday? (crossing fingers)

Groomer: Well, it is kind of late since it is Thursday. What’s the dog’s name?

Lynne with an E: Coco. 

Groomer: Coco!!! Oh great, and I am working this weekend. I am not supposed to schedule anyone else for Saturday but it is Coco.

Coco is a very good dog. And the groomer loves putting little bows on her. But they don’t last long.

The poor bow never had a chance. Jack had it out for that bow and his favorite squeaky toy…Coco. Luckily, Coco survived. The bow…not so much.
