A Grooming Experience

So today I took Ego to get groomed for the first time. I went and picked him up and he looked really cute. He was really hyper, I guess he was just happy to see us. He was very jumpy too, which is not normal for him. I put him in the car and we began to drive home. I got almost home and I looked at him and noticed his tail was longer than I remember and he looked a little bigger and skinnier. I decided this was not my dog. I started to drive back to the groomers and I called Cody to tell him what had happened. I took a picture and sent it to him. He called back and said that he think I am wrong and that it could be Ego. We had never seen Ego groomed before and they look so different when they are groomed. At this point he started making me questions myself, but I knew there was no way our dogs tail could have grown. When I got back to the groomer I told them that this wasn't my dog. She went in the back to look at the dogs, came back dogless and asked if I had a westie. Ummm, no, my dog is black, Westies are white. So she went back again and brought me out a black dog, Yeah, it was my dog!! When I saw Ego I was mad at myself that I hadnt noticed I had the wrong dog from the beginning. The girl that owned the dog I took walked in right at the time too. I went to the Manager and they decided to give me a free add on to my groom next time, a whole $20 value, I guess it was better than nothing, but it took me asking for compensation, than them just offering it. At least I got my dog back and the girl got her dog back too! Here is a picture of the dog they gave me.



And here is my dog.

Sleep-Walker

So last night, at around 2 AM, I heard Brooklyn and Bailey's door open and shut to their room. I heard Bailey talking for a minute and then I heard some whining. I woke up Cody and told him to go check on the girls. He got up and then laid right back down. I asked him why he didn't go, he said he didn't hear anything. So I tried to go back to sleep, but I kept having horrible thoughts about Bailey going outside and getting lost or hurt. So I finally got up myself to go check on them. At this point it had been about 5 minutes since I heard the door open and close. When I reached the hall I had quite a fright, Bailey was just standing there. She didn't say a word to me until I picked her up and asked her what she was doing. She blabbed something to me about my room and then she asked me where Brooklyn was. I walked back into her room, where Brooklyn was sprawled out on both of their beds. I moved her and put them both back into bed. It was so strange that Bailey would just stand there and not come in our room to get us and also shut her door after she left her room, she would normally just leave it open. So this is why I think she was sleep walking. I have also gone into check on them another time and Bailey was sleeping at the side of her bed. She was standing next to the bed with her head laid on it. We are going to have to watch out for this one.
