Jenny seemed to be on one of those 'everything has to be clean' moods yesterday. I noticed that Keith stayed out of the way all day, so perhaps he knew something I didn't but, before I knew it, she had enticed me up to the bathroom and into the bath for a shower! She knows I don't like them, but she makes me have them anyway. Eventually, when she thought I was clean, she let me out and tried to dry me with a towel. Then she dragged me into the bedroom, not to roll on the bed, which would have been a sensible way of getting dry, but to undergo the further humiliation of being blown dry with her hairdryer. I tell you, if I'd seen the straighteners appear, I would really have lost it! She must think I'm a wimpy little poodle or something. Doesn't she know that we terrier types are tough and masculine? We don't go in for all that pretty, perfumed fussing.
Life in north east England (yes, we've moved!) with an eccentric Welshman and a small white dog that thinks he's a Rottweiler.

Ah yes, but Paddy I've seen the photos and you were a poor, weak, half-starved specimen when Jenny first accepted you into her home and family. She would not have done this lightly so be assured she always your best interests at heart - a very big heart at that. And if I were you, I would always behave impeccably and reward her kindness and generosity, even when subjected to the humiliation of a shower and blow-dry.

We're lucky that our dog, Jack, likes swimming so tends to clean himself naturally, even if he doesn't come out smelling quite so sweetly.
But when we have cleaned our mutts in the past, we used to use the bath rather than the shower -- it's harder for them to escape!
Woof! Woof! WOOF! Grrrrr! Woof! WOOF! Pant! Poop! Woof!
Thanks, Lucy. I have read your comment to Paddy but he remains decidedly underwhelmed!
SP, it is a shower in a bath, not a separate shower unit.
YP... no comment! ;)
Yes Jenny you're right. There was no comment from me but I notice there was one from Paddy.
Yes, but you held his paw while he typed it!
