Caitey is losing her fashionable wavy hair

When Caitey was little, she used to have beautiful short wave hair around her neck, on her back and under her tummy. Now as she grows older , for some reason her curly hair starts to extend longer but straighter -- it still twists here and there but is more like straight than wavy now.

Also the hair on her back feel a lot rougher than it used to be, but the ones around her neck area still feels as soft and delicate as cashmere.

I start to take my favorite blonde girl out for rides in the car, and she LOVES the spin. Every time I go out with my key, the smart girl knows it and will head straight to the door of my car. She is still a puppy and the seat of my SUV is pretty high, I will need to help lift her back legs so she can get in on the back seats. I hope she stays "small" longer -- right now she is "only" about 70lbs, I doubt if I can do anything when she is full grown.

She has been a good girl in the car. She will wait patiently and does not chew anything except sniffing here and there to get familiar with her surroundings..... she is a dog after all. Hope she stays behaved because I would not know how to patch up leather car seats.

Right now she is only out with me on shorter trips, like a ride to the bank or school to pick up her human sisters. I plan to stretch the length of time gradually, so hopefully we can bring her with us on out of state trips soon. I hate to leave her in the kennel -- I miss her so much and often worry that she won't be able to rest well when she has to spend the night with a bunch of barking dogs.
