This post has two parts (6 pics) showing how Tia went from being an angel to a devil in the space of 24 hours.
First the good. Tia is 6 months and went for her first groom this week. She had a taster "puppy package" which took about 90 mins and the groomer said she was an absolute angel. I was worried as she HATES me trying to use a hair dryer on her, but stood quietly without a murmur when they used the blaster on her. Huh !!
Here are 2 shots each of the before and after looks. Then I will tell and show you how she became a little horror ...

So, the naughty story. I had spent the morning Spring cleaning, including taking off the sofa seat covers and washing them. While I was out shopping Tia jumped the child gate and got into the lounge. We have been practicing fetching the mail when he postman comes with some success, but on this occasion she decided to fetch, then shred all the letters and a couple of magazines.
Then she must have decided that the bare sofa seats were just too tempting with all that glorious soft fluffy padding to play with. She must have been in heaven when she discovered another foam layer underneath. The following 2 pics give an idea of what I walked in to see, hot and sweaty and carrying 7 bags of groceries. Little Devil - still love her to bits though.
