Bath day and the smell of wet dog(s)

With the hot weather this weekend, it was time to bathe the dogs. Cowboy = NOT happy.
Tess (right) = Putting on a good face, trying to make the best of one of the many indignities dogs must endure to remain man's best friend.



Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.

well....we San Pedro Dogs can only tell Cowboy and Tess that they should be happy their mom chose the bath tub for the bath, our mom is a lot more cruel ...tub with warm water and a hose outside !!!!
bath times at our house are no different. There is a lot of fear, terror, shivering, attempts to escape...EVERY week! Poor Cowboy, he looks completely miserable. Nevertheless, cute pictures!
Poor Cowboy. He looks like he's being punished for something he did, but he's not quite sure what he did to deserve this.
