It was bath day here at the Kennel! We don’t really have a kennel, but Hubby is always telling people that since he married me, his life has gone to the dogs, and now he lives in a kennel!
Fritz was the first one in the shower with me. I’m not sure how this happens. He’s actually Hubby’s dog, but somehow I’m the *lucky* girl who gets to bathe this 75 pound hair factory.
Don’t get me wrong, I love White German Shepherds. They’re so pretty, but the hair, the shedding, Oh my, it is challenging, to say the least. In fact when I recently bought vacuum cleaner bags for my new vacuum, the salesman told me about these wonderful cloth hepa filter bags they made for the machine. Nope! Not for me. I need the cheap paper ones because I fill them up so fast!
I digress…
Fritz was very good in the shower and I actually got him soaped up and rinsed in record time. Once I got him to shake a few times in the shower stall, I passed him off to Hubby, who was waiting with three beach towels to dry him off.
Greta was next. She is so easy, that I simply get her wet, lather her up and then rinse. After a few “good girls” and a couple of shakes she too, is passed off to Hubby.
Now I am wet and naked and I have to run around the bedroom until I “catch” Shubi. Our ten year old pup is quite smart. She can smell a bath coming a mile away! In fact, when this dog sees me naked she runs under the bed to hide. It’s kind of hard on the ego, you know?
Anyway, I scooped up Shubi and brought her in. By this time, I was exhausted, so I sat down on the floor of the shower stall and soaped her up and rinsed her off, before passing her off to Hubby.
I was now faced with the inevitable. I had to take my own shower. I soaped up, rinsed off, cleaned the shower and then…no I didn’t pass myself off to Hubby for drying, I simply had to do it myself.

Whut! You didn’t pass yourself to hubby for drying? LOL
I haven’t got any dogs now. I did have one years ago, but he passed away and he hated a bath!
At the time I didn’t have a hubby lol.
That’s for making me laugh 😉
LOL my Mums poodles are like that – they can smell the bath coming before she even gets the sink full of water and they’re off like rockets. She’s lucky in the sense that they’re toy poodles so she doesn’t need anything bigger than a sink, but unlucky in that they can get under the couches or under the beds and she has to struggle to get them out! And then there’s the hair clipping which is an entirely different saga. 😉
Got to meet your babys on the way out. LOVED them.
