JJ is Metro Sexual....
....oh yes he is


metro sexual:

Modern enlightened, sort of renaissance man. Secure and confident, capable and cool, typically well educated and stylish. Heterosexual with a twist, not gay by any means, but he probably has a few gay friends, and can easily be mistaken for gay by rednecks and jock types. The only straight guy in a fabric store or antique shop who is not being dragged there by a woman.


That definition fits JJ to a T. He fired his groomer at PetSmart and he hasn't been able to find anyone who suits his fancy. His mother was on the verge of giving him the boot due to his lack of grooming.

So, Grandma J found a groomer who only had an eight day wait for an appointment.....she grabbed it and drove over to pick up JJ bright and early, at 7 a.m.....



Talk about bedhead! JJ isn't a morning person, and was a bit miffed that we were heading out so early. He had no idea what was in store for him......none



This is the finished product. As you can see, JJ is giving Grandma J the cold shoulder, and still refuses to smile. He is slightly ticked.



This is the new grooming salon. There weren't a bunch of other dogs to socialize with like at Petsmart. It didn't have big glass windows for people to look in and wave and smile at the dogs either.





Yes, this is the groomer. His name is Michael. He gave Grandma J a great quote of $29.

Grandma J heard JJ crying as she walked out the door.



When Grandma J picked up JJ, Junior, brought JJ out. JJ did not like Junior....can't you tell? Junior is Michael's shampoo girl.

Junior told grandma J that the price was a bit higher than originally quoted....like $5 higher because JJ attacked Michael, and he had to be muzzled. Michael didn't have to be muzzled, JJ did.


Maybe we will find another salon for JJ. One with cute girls.

Aww! JJ looks adorable. Why did he fire his PetSmart groomer? Will you give this one another try?

My girls give me the evil eye instead of the cold shoulder.

JJ looks marvy. Sorry to hear he was happy with the groomers. Rosie would of hated those guys. She's a girl's girl. I found a groomer, who does it in her basement. Rosie LOVES to go!!
Thanks for this post,,,reminds me to make an appt. today.

Poor JJ is probably traumatized and will need some serious pet therapy now. I don't blame JJ for attacking Michael, he looks a little shady to me!! LOL

Is Aztec dog grooming where they take in ex-cons and teach them a skill?
SCARY.
Poor JJ. He does look fab though...are you sure he is not just plain GAY?

Unknown said...

I haven't thought about Aztec in years!!

So, is that a thumbs up or down? The wife is moving up there for work for a year, and needs a groomer for her three British Shorthairs.

Maria, JJ fired Petsmart when they charged over $70 and were rude when questioned about it. JJ was going there reqularly every two months for over two years for $39. Evidently when my soldier SIL took him at at Christmas time he ordered all the extras unbeknownst to anyone. Well the next time we droppped JJ off, the paperwork was waiting for to be sign, and was. Evidently if was for the $76 job. We paid it but questioned why they didn't ask us. They said they asked what we wanted done and my daughter said "what he normally gets". They pretty much said too bad, in a very rude way.

Philly and Karen, Michael was very nice, and JJ probably likes girls better.

Pat, JJ is JJ, he is demanding but is a great burp (and fart) detector....if anyone does either within ten feet he's right there! Can be embarrassing.

Suz, I don't know about excons...but maybe if I took time to examine those tatoos? JJ is not gay. Why do you think he attacked Michael? Maybe the close shave around his unit?

Blue, Aztec came highly reccomended and they don't keep the dogs all day...price is good too. Your wife's dogs probably aren't Metro Sexual. JJ is a bit ummm, well lets just say he's half chihuahua.

I think JJ looked quite nice with the shaggy DA look...perhaps he wanted to come hang out in our Tiki Room and be a surf dog. How long does the skin head look take to grow out some? Poor JJ and the muzzle...

Big Hair Envy said...

How many treats did you have to give JJ before he would look at you again??? !!!!

He is SO adorable!

Jen said...

Did you check JJ's belly? I hope he didn't get a tattoo! yikes!

Phat Mama said...

JJ is adorable. The shampoo girl looks scary though.

Unknown said...

Everything about this made me laugh. Well, everything except the 76 price at Pet Smart. What in good heavens... CrAzY!

Hula Hank said...

That place looks scary. Like the prison beauty parlor.

J.,Thanks for visiting me and welcome!. JJ is adorable. I also have two little ones that hate to go to the groomer. They shake uncontrolably when they realize we're on our way to the groomer. I agree, $76 sounds excessive, even for the "works". What could they possibly be doing to poor JJ?

First off, JJ doesnt look "groomed"...he looks SHAVED. It doesnt look like they did a great job taking care of him. And, Muzzled?? they just admitted they cant work well with JJ, so....new salon!
