Muddy and Fun

The dogs have become dirty over and over again today. It's been quite the day for the fun and the laundry tub. They say dry on Sunday? hehe

Just know we are having fun. I am too but then again I am exhausted in a huge way from all this washing and brushing.

PS: I tried to cheat after washing Brewer 3 times up his legs and under his carriage so I said I will just spray him with waterless shampoo and brush him out. Yeah right. He had caked in mud so bad only a soaking and shampoo would do. So, I said this is bath 4. DO NOT LET HIM OUT. He's going home soon. hahahaha

Check out some of the photos from today.

Darlah, you are a saint! Whenever I see that type of feet I know I make a sad face. Ripley just knows he is having fun and looks at me like I am a stick-in-the-mud (irony intended!)

Can't tell you the third one is in the photo gallery...could it be Jeannie? Fun pictures! Wow, what a day it has been for all of us, with the high winds and rain, sticks and mud, but so much fun for our dogs. That's what it's all about. Cooper had a bath on Friday, you wouldn't know it today but he had a great day so that's all I care about. He may not be the cleanest for his play date on Sunday but he will have fun anyway!

meant to say "can't tell who the third one is in the gallery"...too much brushing today, my fingers are numb....

OMG you weren't kidding!! I believed you when you said he got dirty, but had no idea how bad it was!! Thanks so much for cleaning him up - I know it was a big job! Maybe we should have named him "Pigpen", that would suit him well... (He's splayed out, at my feet already, so it's safe to say he had a ball today!!)

Jeannie is #3

Courtney: He had so much fun and he was like that 4 times. After the 4th time I said if you let him out again you DIE. I am a little slow or I like them having fun but I have my limit. hahahaha

Nathan adored standing out there watching them relish the mud and wind. Why not, he wasn't cleaning. :-)
