Some people have too much time on their paws.

Our Mom was watching a dog show the other evening. Among the terrier group, of course, was one of our breed. Slim, elegant, well-coiffed, with facial fur combed forward.


Mom looked at the TV screen -- then she looked at us.

"Hey boychiks, come here a minute."

Not too much she could do with the slim and elegant part, but we do have a certain je ne sais quoi with the comb-over. Right?

    Errrrr...I don't think it is the best look for y'all. Just think how much food would get stuck in there! Water drops! Mud!

    We like ya better as nature intended. Handsome, debonaire, and slightly scruffy.

    You are exceedingly handsome, just need to get those beards in some nice gooey mud to complete that special Terrier look.

    You two boyz are toooo cute just the way you are! Even before the comb-over (Donald Trump, eat your heart out), you looked better than anydoggie we've seen on TV!

    Momma used to do that to Grandpa Angus; make all his furs face forward.

    I am more a fan of the wild look.

    Er, did Mom put some cotton wool on your nose there??
    I see I'm not the first one to look at those photos and think of Donald Trump! (And I really don't like him 'cos he'd going to build a golf course - dogs banned of course - on some of my favourite sand dunes near Aberdeen.
    Stick to the old look, Boys (And take control of the remote..)
    Cheers, H.

    Maybe you should hide the comb. Forget the diet.

    Mom tries that on us, too, but one good shake and we're back to the windblown look again. Those showdogs must use mousse.

    We think you just gave Moma some new ideas. Fergs is NOT going to be happy! (You do look lovely, but we tend to think of ya more the way Asta's Mommi captured you in her lovely painting!)

    Stay cool down there in South Florida.
