1st Bath

As you can see less bubbles than Jeannies but this is what I did. I use the bathing beauty to distibute the shampoo and conditioner all over the pups. Then I drain and use the hose to rinse each pup up. Then I squeeze the excess water off of them then take a towel and vigorously dry them. I then spray them with grooming spray and comb them out. They then go under the dryers till they can go outside.

Roxie's pups were inquisitive but of course they were not full of bubbles up to their necks. Clean still but the bathing beauty ran for less time.

Then Nathan came in and held each puppy while I did their bum and cleaned up their pads. I also took a quick photo and they were all still wet. Outside they went to dry off. Good thing this was not winter or it would have been a much slower process. 

Here's a short video just before baths. I tried to tucker them out before the big experience.

Darlah we are going to have to call you the WizMom. I don't know how you managed. I have tried with Rusty and I am soaked right through. All the pups look absolutely adorable.
