Annoying...

You know what we find annoying?

Burrs!

Quick picture--Roxy was trying to photobomb.
 Especially Noogoora  burrs.....aka California burrs.
(Thanks California.)
 They look like spikey olive pits.
And get horribly tangled in our fur.
These are from this past weekend:

You can see the ones that needed to be CUT out.
We don't like them.
Roxy update:
(Roxy is learning to get around on three legs, though walks are short.  She tires quickly.
She had the Vet's bandage off in no time, and a replacement, done the Vet's way. 
She  has now gone back to the original bandage with a baby's sock taped over it,
and the threat of the Cone of Shame.)

  3. Burrs are the worst and if SHE is anything like my mom, she won't stop until she removes every single one of them no matter how long it takes!
    More AireZen is heading your way, Roxy!

  6. We hate burrs too. We have two kinds, a big one wit hooks and tiny little round ones. The worst part is having them removed. They go in a lot easier than they come out. Roxy, relax girl and don't mess with your foot. You need it to heal and get strong again.

  7. Poor Roxy, we wondered how long that bandage would last.

    Those burrs must be horrible, both for you pups and for HER. We have spiny prickly things that grow on some weeds in our yard, and they are almost as bad.
