Smelly Like a Dog
This past weekend in a sudden, unstoppable onset of nesting, I declared our house a natural disaster. A natural odorous disaster. And I blamed the dogs. Everywhere I went, I smelled dogs. Sitting on my couch? Dirty dog smell. Cooking in the kitchen? Wet dog smell. Napping in my bedroom? Musty dog smell. Everywhere I went, I smelled dog. And I wanted it gone. Out of my life.
So, I first made Chris attack the dogs with mango shampoo. Next, I attacked the house itself. I think I won the battle with the house. The dogs? I’m still not sure. They smell sort of better. Like wet, rotten mangoes. Although, this is an infinite improvement over the wet, rotten dog smell.

AND NOW, ITS LUCY’S TURN…

I applaud the success of your effort. It has been 1.5 years since I bath our dog. I make excuses this year…around this side of the world it’s coming to winter so I don’t want to subject her to it.

We had an outside dog named Sampson when I was growing up. We would squirt him off occasionally with the hose, but rarely more. He was an outside dog. Thank goodness.

That pic with Chris holding Molly right before she’s goes into the tub has got to be one of the saddest little faces I’ve ever seen.

Aww Molly doesn’t like the hair dryer. Cute. My parent’s dog barks at it. One of my cats actually LOVES the hair dryer. I call her my little helper because she comes halling booty every morning when I turn it on. Silly girl.
