Bath Time

Beau has had two baths already this week. He seems to be wanting to dig in the mud, run down into the ditch near our house, and worst of all – find dead things like birds behind our house and either eat them or maybe roll in them. 😥 He was smelling really bad yesterday afternoon, so Tim gave him another bath. He got one on Monday because he was a bad dog and got down in the ditch to play in the mud. 🙁

Beau does NOT like to get a bath. It’s nice weather here, in the upper 60’s and 70’s, so it’s not that he’s cold. He just doesn’t like to have the water from the water hose streaming down on him. I didn’t get any pictures of the bath this time. Instead, we dried him off as best we could with towels, and then brought him in the kitchen and wrapped him up in an old sheet, to finish drying off. He didn’t like it very much!

    Dogs really seem to love playing in the soil or in the mud. My dog Bruno will surely do the same thing if he gets the chance. 🙂

  2. Gail Said,

    Yep, he’s a dog and they like to dig and play in dirt, etc. Just really think about it, think about the story I had Don tell y’all about Caleb and the skunk…….it could be worse, trust me, it could be a WHOLE lot worse!

    Aw, sweet little guy. 🙂
    Reagan feels the same about getting a bath. He tolerates it, but his expressions and body language tell us how much he hates it! I’m sure he & Beau would have lots to talk about if they ever met. LOL! He also loves to roll in dead animal…the worst is armadillo! Philip gags the entire time he’s washing him!

    It’s beautiful, Stace. It really is gorgeous and I can’t believe you have a nativity from Bethlehem. I DO have the Willow Tree nativity, the entire set. It was a gift from my husband two years ago and I love it so much, I leave it on display in my living room year round. I could never ever pack it away. I know how lucky I am to have it. But you’re awfully lucky to have this one. It’s very special.
