Murphy's Summer Haircut

Murphy, our 2 year old Golden Retriever, got his first summer hair cut yesterday. To me, it was a pretty big deal. I LOVE Murphy's pretty hair. Its long, sometimes tangled, and probably really hot, but it so cute. A golden retriever is no golden retriever without the hair!

Anyways, after Jonathan insisted for almost two weeks that Murphy would LOVE a lighter load for the summer, I decided to give in. I mean, it grows back, right?? Jonathan was off on Friday, so he took Murphy into PetsMart and he gave them strict directions NOT to shave all the hair off the poor guy. I'm not gonna lie - I was pretty nervous.. and anxious to see the outcome.

Around 5:30pm Jonathan and I both went to pick up Murph and he looked so handsome! He was like a new dog - happy, lighter, cooler, and clean cut. This will probably be a yearly occurrence. Well, depends how the growing-out process goes.
