*giggles* This is a commission by  partial of my characters Garviel and Gabby at Garvi's family grooming salon...and Gabby being a stubborn pup (or is she?).

Gabby hates anyone messing with her fur...especially vets and groomers. She struggles, she squirms and she "tenderizes" the groomer (wanting to bite since she thinks they are messing her fur and making it hurt). Even with her predesposition, her mom and dad take her to to the Frou-frou Grooming Salon where Garviel's parents work. This day, Garvi's mom wanted him to try and groom Gabby, which made him nervous since Gabby loved to pick on him all the time. However, he had a little gizmo he made to help him.

"See mom! My groominator 3000!" Garviel barked happily as she showed the four arms. Gabby's mom was kinda puzzled with Garvi's invention while Garvi's mom smiled and giggled.

"That's my pup!" Garvi's mom barked happily, "You see Mrs. Reimann, my boy just loves inventing things, even if they go kaput on him. He's been wanting to use this on a stubborn pup to see if it helps." Mrs. Reimann noddled and giggled as she undressed Gabby to just her diaper, then helped her up on the chair, watching her squirm in protest.

"Puppy dun wanna groom!" Gabby whined as Garvi giggled and toddled over with his arms ready.

"Don worry Gabby, this won't hurt," Garvi barked as he started to use one of his arms to brush her out. As he expected Gabby didn't cooperate, especially for him. But that was why he made the arms for...to keep her still while brushing her out. So...he tried to keep her down with two of the arms while brushing and combing her out.

"Be still Gabby!" Garvi barked, "Combin' hurts because you're not being good! Just like how you pick on me hurts." Gabby stuck her tongue out and tried to bite the arm, cringing as she bit the metal of the arm.

"Puppy thinks you tinky and don' needa groom!" Gabby barked, finally hopping out of the chair and starting to run around.

"Sit down!" Garviel barked as he chased after her. Gabby just smirked as she kept making him run after her. A few moments later, he slid into some of the hair his mom had clipped off Mirai making him fall on his diapered tush.

"Teehee, I see a little tinky pup on his butt!" Gabby barked back teasingly, "Can't catch me!" Gabby kept running about. Unfortunately Garvi was stuck on the floor as the arms were heavier than he expected. To his luck, one his arms actually caught Gabby and accidentally tugged her diaper's waistband. "Nuuuu fair!"

"Gotcha!" Garviel giggled as Gabby wiggled about, off balance, falling on top of Garviel. "Bad puppy!"

"Groomin' bad! Puppy good!" Gabby barked back as she beeped Garviel's nose.

"Nooo...puppy's bad. Bein' mean to me all the time and mean to my mom who's trying to help you get groomed and have no tangles," Garviel barked back as Gabby started to blush as she looked at him.

"I'm a bad puppy cause...I like you," Gabby blushed and mumbled.

"Gabby," Garviel petted her with one of his actual hands, "Can you please be good when you get groomed; my mom gives candy to good puppies." Gabby smiled a bit as she blushed.

"Puppy wants Garvi to groom me with his real paws..." Gabby smiled, leaning in to lick his cheek which made him blush.

"Aww, okay cutie," Garvi smiled as Gabby helped him up, getting his arms off him and sitting up the chair again.

A big thanks for a cute commission.
