KNIT 1, PURL 2 It was getting so bad I thought I would be sheared and my hair made into yarn. That's me, that's good dog Devon, and I was a mess! I couldn't see out and my back legs were so matted together that I could hardly use them. What were my humans thinking, were they going to let my hair keep growing and make it into yarn? Even a sheep gets a decent hair cut once in a while! Just when I thought I was finally gonna get a decent trim, they turned me in to Rescue. But, you know what? First thing Foster Mother did was cut the hair away from my eyes.......it was great, I could see again. She also trimmed some of the mats around my legs, and she promised I would see the groomer as soon as we could get an appointment. I'm a good boy with a gentle nature, I didn't deserve to become a giant immobile hairball. This hair thing can be really good because it means I don't have fur, I have hair, like humans. That means I'm hypoallergenic and won't shed on the furniture, but it also means I have to go to the groomer every 4-6 weeks, because my hair just keeps growing, like yours. As soon as I get all handsome again I'll be ready to find a new "forever" home. One where I'll be loved enough to be taken to a groomer regularly. If you're looking for a fur free friend, that will love you and be forever grateful, then I'm your guy. If things are looking baaaaaaad, or you're feeling a little sheepish, I'll be there for you. So please just spin over and see me. Come soon!
