Spencer's Feet

Spencer and Glindy were groomed yesterday...mostly. Spencer's legs are still shaggy, and his toenails are still way too long. This isn't really the groomer's fault; apparently, Spencer turns into a little demon with her as soon as she starts handling his feet.

He lets me hold his feet, and doesn't seem overly reactive when I apply light pressure to his pads, but you never know. I'm taking him to the vet this morning to make sure there's nothing physically wrong before I take it on as a behavior problem.

My gut feeling is that he simply doesn't respect the groomer enough to let her handle his body parts. If true, then I'm probably going to have to learn how to shave and trim him myself. *sigh*
