Baths and All That

It was warm today but after 2 days of the pool being off - brrrr so no swimming here. We are hoping tomorrow for sure!

Panda and Teddy had a bath today. Both really needed it. 

Here is today's gallery. You will see just groomed. haven't been groomed and well we are having fun photos. Tomorrow Jazmyn, Marlee and Murphy get a bath and I start sanding my doors so galleries may be sparse. We shall see. I am running out of time so I must begin right after grooming/baths in the early morning. I so do not want to do it but I so need to. I will be glad when it is done. I am hoping by Friday I have completed it but we shall see.

The dogs LOVED being outdoors today. When it was raining the last couple of days, they preferred the couch and watching tv and every now and then they ran like banshees plowing everything in their sight out of the way. It's so funny but oh cleanup can be interesting. I am glad rain is not slated till Saturday and I hope they are wrong about that too.

Ziggy likes clean dogs. Whenever I wash one he just falls crazy for them. It must be the smell. I just laugh. For dogs everything is about the smell.

Christine and Clarity are supposed to come for a swim Wednesday. I am hoping the weather is grand. The pool should be back up to 90 by then. 

I am going to do belly shots today of the gals. Roxie's is there but not so big and Adele's is larger. You will see. It makes sense looking at their dates. In 2 weeks we get xrays. Wow...

That's it today!

Wonderful pics again. I love looking at them nightly. To think, 2 years ago I had never heard of a Havanese. I now think they are the most gorgeous dogs inside and out. It is funny because of all the colour variations I go through something like this:"oh my, now that one is really something", then I do it all over again. They are 'all' so beautiful.

Murphy sure loves to run! Her feet are off the ground in half the photos!
I love how you are able to capture the action sequences. I feel like I could make a flip book out of the pictures and actually watch the pups running:-)

Murphy is a fun loving dog. It must be fun to watch her.

September 14, 2015 | Unregistered CommenterKathy & Kona

Yes, Murphy is a fun dog.

As usual, lots of fun enjoying all the pics. I think some of your dawgies were miffed that the pool temp was low today. ... 90defrees?! And people think I keep my pool warm at 85,
Well it's confirmed, Clariity goes gaga now every time she finds a pine cone. It's a riot watching her play with them. Too bad she chews them to bits, otherwise I'd let her bring them in the house.

Nathan likes it at 85. :-)

We love our Teddy Bear dirty or clean - he is the cutiest patootiest.

Great gallery. I love Murphy's black ear. It really distinguishes her from the others. Is this Teddy Rusty's brother. If so he really grew! He is gorgeous. I agree with Sherry. You could make the Gallery into a flip book. Good luck with the sanding. You will really need the pool to relax while you are doing it.

Ronnie, this is Rusty's bro Teddy. He grew up into a little tank! Hard to believe he was half the size of our family's 7lb Pomeranian when my parents brought him home last year.

Susan:

He's actually not big. He is longer than Rusty. A pom is supposed to be smaller. :-)
