The Day Before

A muddy dog is justification of our weekly bath, and Rugby knows he works hard to earn his bath each week. He takes this very seriously and Tuesday was no exception.

We went to the barn just as the layer of ice on the ground was melting and turning the whole place into giant mud pit. Rugby loved it.

He begged us to let Joyful outside to run and play with him, he just could not leave without seeing her! All the running around helps to keep him warm longer, and he lasted a whopping 2 hours Tuesday before he said he was cold.

You all know already how this day ended...
...with Rugby licking the soap of his face and smiling at me!

  2. Loves his bath????!!!!
    Oh dear Rugby, we must educate you. We dogs do not like baths. Period. Now that doesn't mean you can't secretly enjoy it, just don't let your Mom know!

  3. Well, I guess that bath was worthwhile after all. Still, makes me glad that I'm short-coated!!

  4. That mud photo is pretty impressive! I am not a fan of mud or baths! I think you might just be a little crazy, Rugby!
