Getting Ready for our First Dog Show

Gunnar is 6 months old now. Just barely. Which means he's old enough to start strutting his stuff in a more formal way.

We've been practicing and getting advice and today he had his first professional grooming experience.

After:

We're told he was a perfect gentleman while at the beauty parlor.

Now I just have to keep him clean for a few days. ;-)
