* Oscar taking a much-deserved nap after vigilantly protecting his dad 24/7 from the hazards of life during these trying times…

And, yes, I know he really needs a haircut. So do I.

Rich,
Random question. A friend has a dog that requires a sedative to endure a clipping. Does Oscar fear or enjoy the experience?

It is my hope that when I am finally judged, I am thought of well enough that I am reincarnated as a good dog.

We all need haircuts.

Thank you for the Oscar moment.

My hair is such a mess that I’ve taken to wearing head wraps when I’m on a Zoom or similar meeting. I don’t know why. It’s not as though anyone else on the meetings looks any better.

Just looking at a dog napping lowers your blood pressure 20 points. Thanks, Oscar.

I’m hoping this thing is over before I look like a gray-haired Larry Fine.

That long haired, ruffled look is growing on me. Oscar looks great. Thanks for the lift.

Thank goodness for our dogs.

Helping to keep us sane and giving us a good reason to leave house for some fresh air

It is tough and noble work. Oscar deserves time to refresh his energy.

Can I get a Zoom meeting with Oscar?

Yeah, I’m a sucker for the “shaggy dog” look…

Rich, don’t forget to take a couple days off yourself.

(Not saying you’re faltering, Just sayin.)

My husband’s hair is growing out in a way that makes him look more and more like Boris Johnson. it’s a problem. I’m beginning to blame him for Brexit.

Oscar looks even more cuddly with the long hair. Thank you for the picture.

I’ll be taking the beard trimmer to my husband’s hair, probably this weekend. My hair is all one length and I only have it trimmed once or twice a year, so no difference for me.

I’m channeling my inner Oscar today.

Thanks for the Zen Moment, Rich and Oscar. He kinda reminds me a big, fuzzy dustmop.
