Mmm…mum and I bathed our dog Vale today. It was wet. Apparently she started to smell more doggy than usual (not that I noticed) and she’d been itching a lot. So it was bathtime ^_~. She hasn’t been bathed in over a year, so she was due one. We can’t use our bath, so it’s off into the garden we go, armed with bucket, towel, shampoo and watering can. and dog of course ^_~. Firstly it’s on with the water, somehow more of that managed to go over me than the dog…Then shampooing time. Get Vale, and massage it into her coat. Well, of couse whilst I was doing that she had to lean on me didn’t she. So I got a bit wetter! Then we washed the shampoo off, then dried her. By this time she was nearly dry, my trousers were dark with water – soaked through, and decorated with yellow lab hairs and my top was slightly damp and absoultely covered in lab hairs! To say nothing of my chair…that was wet with hairs too ^_~

Anyhow, she’s now clean, smells great and we got rid of a lot of loose hairs. So it served it’s purpose! However, now she’s refusing to come near us…dad’s turn for a walk tonight, me thinks!
