She has never been willing -- the only way I do it is if she's sleepy or asleep. Then it works. And it took until a year or so ago that I could do her back paws without help. I admire you for grooming your dogs, but maybe Murphy just needs to be groomed by someone else! Love the hedgehog finish! Your mom's angel ornie looks good too. As do the Murphy ornies!Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03646028248366805686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-407963254674094722.post-47686189609487775012015-11-21T15:53:07.755-06:002015-11-21T15:53:07.755-06:00The hedgehog is just too cute and your choice of f...The hedgehog is just too cute and your choice of fabrics is just perfect.<br /><br />Sorry about the bit finger but he really didn't mean it I'm sure. Clarice turns into a demon cat at the vet and we've been 3 times since we moved here so she's already got a reputation as being a bad kitty. She's nothing like that at home but she got all aggressive and bit the vet tech last week. We even go to a kitty only vet to help her stress but didn't make a bit of difference to her this time.

Hope your bite heals quickly. :)<br /><br />I adore that angel ornament. I think I am going to join you yet again (hey, that's two so far) and stitch along with you. Since this one is for your Mom, I think mine will be for my Mama, too. My sweet Mama is with Jesus, so it will hang on my tree...maybe a real angel will let her know it's there. :) She loved green and blues...so I am gonna go with one of those (depending on the stash). I hope (crossing skeins here, that I have a hand dyed blue-ish green sort of floss. What do you think? Thank you for the link sweet friend. :) Even though I am way behind, I still like the idea that we stitching together, if not in deed, then at least in spirit. <br /><br />Blessings to you sweet friend. :) <br /><br />Stitchy Mc Floss https://www.blogger.com/profile/00562041622656969121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-407963254674094722.post-16992489982668474672015-11-20T12:53:51.575-06:002015-11-20T12:53:51.575-06:00Dearest Vickie , well that still have all your fin...Dearest Vickie , well that still have all your fingers off , that was a wild beauty ..smile ...

Hedgehogs always make me smile; my daughter 's dog's favorite toy is a hedgehog, but, not knowing about this animal, he's been named Pat the Rat! <br />Your ornaments will be lovely. <br />When our Woody needs calming, he gets a weight-appropriate dose of Benedryl. Perhaps your vet will suggest that instead of an actual tranquilizer. You definitely need to keep all your fingers!<br /><br />CalamityJrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04476593722594704013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-407963254674094722.post-72837188510321016662015-11-20T10:21:24.520-06:002015-11-20T10:21:24.520-06:00Your hedgehog pillow turned out beautifully!

Hope your thumb is okay and hopefully the grooming will go better the next time. I've had a similar experience grooming one of my cats (long hair). She ends up looking a ratty mess because she is so difficult. No more long haired cats for me. :)<br /><br />By the way, I did get your email earlier ~ I guess the real test will be to see if any reply to this comment comes through.
