We just switched groomers, because the salon I was going to refused to dye Bedlam (even though that’s a service they offer…) because she’s not a pure white dog. Apparently colored coats don’t hold color well, according to them.
She is *barely* not white, and I’ve had her dyed off and on for years, but they wouldn’t budge, so bye bye salon and hello mobile groomer at my house!
She looks like a rock star. I love this.
He’s in his punk era
Look who got a Mohawk !!
Embracing his inner punk
My grandma asked me to home groom her dog because he was getting too long, I opted to keep his little mohawk
Gwyn's got long, soft hair tufts all across her head, but frequently the tufts above her white stripe stand up on their own. Built-in mohawk.
The grass is long. The storms are wet. Tristan runs around with his head down, snjiffing, and the wet grass brushes against his forehead. I thought the Opawz blow pen dye would last a while because Tristan wasn't going to get baths, but it turns out rinsing multiple times a day is pretty effective to wash it out.
Still working on blowing near his face. Tristan has remembered he used to enjoy it when I blew into his nose so he could smell my breath (🥰) so hopefully we'll re-dye soonish.

I think when I start clipping Tristan, I’ll do the black hair on his head first. Leave that skunk streak as a curly little mohawk. Just once.
"Just once" I said. Ha! It's far too adorable to remove permanently.
Skull-cat's adopters sent my shelter some photo updates!
She's doing so good. :3
That mohawk is "natural" in that we advanced skin from her scruff up to cover her exposed skull. As neck fur is longer than head fur, this is the result.
The groomer is coming for your mohawk, Tristan.
Today, the part of Tristan will be played by an Elvis impersonator. Thank yew, thank yew verreh mush.
Why did you stop petting Gwyn? Gwyn needs love! All the love!
... you are taking pictures. of Tristan.
PAY ATTENTION TO GWYN!
(I did not do that to her stripe hairpuff, it's just a tiny mohawk these days)
Sometimes I miss the Punk Poodle look, but I hated the attention it brought. Otherwise I would 100% bring back her mohawk.
i’m truly obsessed w mavis like why does she look like this she’s perfect
What a fabulous mohawk
Whatcha doin'? Can we help?
I felt brief outrage that Tristan didn’t have a hat like Gwen but she actually didn’t have a hat either my brain just causes problems on purpose.
What do you mean, Tristan didn't have a hat? Look at his adorable whipped cream with sprinkles hat! He wears it all the time.
Beatle has a new look! I’ve been wanting to do some sort of ombré dye on her for a long time, so I finally decided to do pink, purple, and blue down her mohawk. I am absolutely in love with the way it turned out! She looks like cotton candy and it’s great.
