Meltdown

Here is the gallery.

I woke up at 7am to have Dennis yell, do something mom - there is mud all over the floors. Oh Cinnamon has mud on her. I took her into the grooming room and the mud clinged to her as if it didn't want to let go. She had it all over her face, on her tummy amd milkstations and the paws, I literally had to put conditioner on them so I could pull it out. Then Dennis screamed - got another and then another and another. That was the start of my day. Where did they get it - around our walkout. This is a huge meltdown and way too much mud. I did not want to start my day like that so they are doing more playing than not and we are only now taking them out a few at a time and watching that they do not repeat the performance. We have had two rounds of it and that is enough for me. I need a nap.

The dogs played. They still had fun but on hindsight I would keep them in the kitchen - let them dry so the mud falls off. I wonder if that would work?

Tomorrow another pup departs. Check out her bath.

I am warming up blankets for the dogs as I blog. The dogs so appreciate it!
