🌊 Cecil 🌊
In six days, Cecil will be a whole year old. I haven't had the privilege of knowing him for quite that long, but when I met him on January 26th if this year, my life changed. Adventures, baths, training, pack walks, ambassador programs... If you want to see more of Cecils personal life, you can keep up with him at Cecil&Moss.
For today's bath, we used our Sensi-Mue (hypo de-shed), our chlorahex shampoo, and our Pur hypo conditioner.
Cecil doesn't love his bath, but he does sit like a champ. While he was soaking in his conditioner, I did a deep rinse on his ears since they've been a little funky. The cleaner and massage combo brought all the dirt up to where I could reach it and clean it out.
Once he was out of the bath, he determinedly marched his little butt over and sat nicely on my table. Cecil is used to the blaster and doesn't need a neck tie, so he sat patiently while I checked over skis skin and dried him with the blaster. He inspected my ears and my hair while I massaged his hair to loosen up the shed.
Once he was dry, we moved on to nails with a couple of begrudging side eyes and reluctant cooperation.
I brushed him over with my rubber curry and got off enough hair that I don't really want to think too hard about it.
I told him he was done, gave him his release word, and instead of hopping off right away, he decided to lay down and take a little table nap.
He's all clean and ready to celebrate his first year of learning. I am looking forward to every year, every bath, and every stinky side eye this boy will offer me for the rest of his life.
