FROM TYLER PERRY, IT REMINDED ME OF WHAT I JUST SAW IN SAN DIEGO, SUNDAY


Went to South Carolina a couple of years back, as we were driving from South Carolina to Virginia to visit family. We were going to my son graduation from military boot camp. That was my first time being that way in over 20 years. It was amazing to me after living on the west coast for so many years. The greenery all around the open distant from one house to another. Then I came back to San Diego where I swear they must be trying to fill in every piece of land. What a difference. I will share with you what I say only yesterday here in San Diego next.

FROM TYLER PERRY: 

Let's be clear! Here's what I know about dogs. They cool themselves through their paws, their mouths and their ears… they should not be SHAVED!!! I'm not shaving my dogs, I'm thinning their coats. I am very aware of sunburn and that you shouldn't SHAVE dogs, especially double coated dogs.

Peter, Paul and Mary are not purebred huskies, they are mixed with something that I'm not sure of, because they were rescues from the Humane Society. They struggle big time in this Georgia heat. They are lethargic and constantly thirsty around this time of year.

For four years they were never thinned and I was advised to start thinning by several dog lovers and a vet. I started having them thinned two years ago and they do so much better in the summer and are happier when their coats are thinned. AGAIN, not shaven but thinned! If they were double coated purebred Siberian huskies I wouldn't do it.

And to all my dog lovers out there that are giving me a hard time, you need to know that my four dogs are better taken care of than some humans take care of themselves. They live in a climate-controlled doghouse shaded by huge oak trees. They are groomed once a week by one of the best groomers in Georgia. The Waggin’ Wagon!!! And they see the vet often for checkups. When I'm away they are cared for around the clock. I LOVE MY DOGS and have the heart and the bills to prove it.

Ok, let me breathe... Talking bout my dogs!!! Calm down TP, calm down!
