Nice and Clean

Jingle had her first bath (the first one with us)last night. She heard the word “bath” and went straight to her crate to hide. 

She reluctantly got into the tub, and trembled the whole time. Obedient girl that she is, she didn’t try to make a break for it, but she did not enjoy it.

We bought her this amazing smelling papaya dog shampoo. It was great going on, but after the bath, instead of smelling like papaya, she merely smelled of “wet dog.”

The rest of the evening, she lay curled up in a ball. Insulted.

Seth put a blanket around her to keep her warm. Seth loves putting blankets on Jingle. It’s one of his favorite things to do. She keeps them on too. She’ll walk around all day with Seth’s little comfy cozy baby blanket hanging around her back like a loose, stinky saddle.

Jingle may not smell like papaya, but trust me when I tell you this, she smells better than Seth’s blanket.

    That is the cutest pic yet! I will try and get a video of Meg in the bath over to you – may be too technically challenging for me tho’!!

  3. Poor Jingle, I never bathe my dogs, might have to think about that before the hard freeze of winter. Poo
