There's a Mutt in the Laundry Room!

You guessed it! Roxy's in the laundry room It's because there is an armed and dangerous man on the loose, and I feel much safer with her inside. I may go take a few pics of her in a minute

This is your chance to start potty-training her and showing your mom that she can be good in the house!

That's great! I hope she no one gets hurt and I'm glad Roxy's home

I know, but my mom is already objecting. She says I smell already from going to get Roxy. She has to go back out straight in the morning...but its a start..*sigh*

If Roxy is making you smell, give her a bath.

If Roxy is making you smell, give her a bath.

You said it, bath time!

If Roxy is making you smell, give her a bath.

My mom wont let me, but one day when she leaves me alone, I'm sneaking Roxy in for bath time!

[Almita]

Ya you should for me when I'm home alone and the dogs are outside and i'm bored I grab a hose and I start chasing them with a hose and I won't be bored anymore and the two little munchkins won't smell either. Also on a hot day I do that to them and with a friend we get wet also.

You could always get a damp rag & wipe her down. Atleast she'd be a bit cleaner.

Also, as long as you don't soap it up to much, you can wipe her with a rag & dog shampoo. I'd wipe her again with a completely rinsed out rag afterwards.

I could just buy some dry dog shampoo...
Anyways, she seems very content being inside. Mom said she has to go back out first thign in the morning, but at least shes warmer in here

Yay! Glad Roxy's inside for now.

I thinks it's really weird your mom won't let Roxy in because she isn't potty trained. You CAN'T potty train her unless she has a chance to come inside. She will smell if you can't give her a bath. Point these things out to your mom.

I just want you to know that I have followed your posts and it's obvious you love Roxy. Continue to plug away at your Mom (one night inside visits are a start) and maybe Roxy will win her over.

I'm glad Roxy is in tonight, in the safe, warm laundry room.

Give her a kiss for me. She's such a pretty girl.

Way to go Roxy! Glad she found a cozy place for the night.

If you do go get shampoo, I recommend looking for something with tea tree oil. It smells nice and it's good for their skin so it should prevent her from getting stinky quite so fast. At least, it works on Wilbur. He is quite the stinky little dog, just from rolling around in whatever he finds every time he goes outside.

[vinjashira]

yay - she's inside

I'm a bit puzzled, why doesn't your Mum let you give Roxy a bath?

[JenBKR]

Woohoo, glad to hear that Roxy's inside! You could get those bath wipes - they might help until you can give her a bath Good luck!
