Last Sunday was Spa Day at our house - for the dogs! Yep, you read that right, it was doggy spa day.
First we took the big guys for a long walk to tire them out. It works best if they are tired, they don't fight and try to run away. Then one at a time, they
got their individual spa treatments.
First up was Miss Lucy. She sat with JB on the front porch and got her nails done. Then it was my turn - I cleaned ears and started brushing. They all got brushed twice - once before and then once after their baths.
I didn't take alot of photos - because we were working with hostile dogs and water and I wanted my camera to stay working.
That's a far way photos of Abby the Clean dog. Prior to her spa treatment, she rather resembled Harry the Dirty Dog.
Finally - there is a distance shot of Dudley. He's making sure he's not close enough to be touched with
water again. He hates water! After he was done he spent a good 45 minutes rolling, in the lawn on the road - anywhere he could to get dry. He
hates water! I'm not sure you fully understand. It's no
Purlin'Goldens method of bathing, buy it works for us. Happy

Isn't it amazing how a spa treatment makes everyone feel and look better!!
ReplyDeleteSissy will get a bath next weekend. I figure that's far enough post-op that the stitches should have been absorbed or whatever. I am blessed to have a hound that likes to climb in the tub and shower!
ReplyDeleteMosby doesn't like a bath either, but Roscoe doesn't seem to mind. If he sees a grooming brush he'll push Mosby out of the way so he can get brushed.
ReplyDeleteYour dogs look beautiful after their day at the spa :>)
ReplyDeleteDo you smell wet dog? I'm just sure there's one around here somewhere. Sorry I couldn't chat this morning (well, noon-ish for me), but there was a 'customer' building her first quilt and we were deciding it needed yo-yo's at the intersects, rather than a rip-and-redo. Her poor soul couldn't have taken it. btw, two bolts of the TG fabrics you made the swing bag out of are on their way to me... but I don't know why? Was it a skirt?
