The Bath

Today started out so lovely. The temperature was great ... 80 degrees, humidity was low. This is the first day like this in 10 days. Mommy took me outside and played with me ... I was one happy doggie ... then it happened. She got out the clippers ... I knew that it was going to be bad. Sure enough ... she shaved me ... clipped me ... cut and filed my nails ... cleaned my ears ... brushed my teeth ... did something TOTALLY unspeakable to my little hiney ... then the worst. She stuck me in a tub of water, soaped and conditioned me ... granted I am absolutely lovely and I smell fabulous, but this was NOT my favourite activity.

To make matters worse ... my big brother Raggamuffin was also cleaned and he LOVED it ... he LAID QUIETLY on the grooming table and enjoyed it. Grrrrrrrr ... Mommy did this outside and ALL of the neighbours could see ... er ... ah ... if they wanted to.

There should be a law against this.

By "unspeakable", you don't mean the...ohmygawsh...that (gasp!) thing they do to us under our tails when they think we're not looking? Eeeeyeeewwwww!!! You have my complete and total sympathy. That's why God invented "skootching" for us to do on carpets. So we wouldn't be SQUEEEZED. WhatEVERRRRR would we do without HUMANS, I ask you? Hmmmmm???

You REALLY should write more often. It's been OVER a month since you posted this. How many times do I have to read about the "unspeakable" before you post again? Hmmmmmmm??
