    How do groomers do it?

    Well tonight Gracie was running wildly in the mud. I brought her inside so I can give her a bath. Well as it turns out she hates water and will make you pick her up several times to put her back in the tub.

    As soon as I got her in the tub I turned around to shut the door. She jumped out of the tub and ran to the corner of the bathroom. So I picked her up and put her back in the tub. I turned on the water slowly she jumped out again and ran back to the corner. I picked her up once again and put her back in the tub with running water. She then tried to squeeze through my legs and finally pushed her way through. By this time I was very frustraited and picked her up once again put her in the tub again this time I shut the curton so only I could see. I turned on the shower to get her back nice and wet. She sat down like a good girl then all the sudden she jumped out. So once again I had to pick her up and put her back. By this time I figured it might be easier if I just get in there with her. So I jumped in and as I got in she got out. So I was soaked and so was she so I had to put her back for the last time. I got her to sit and stay then after I just got her risned enough to call it good she jumped out and I decided that I am not longer going to give her a bath. I will let my husband do it from now on.

    I am pretty sure I have messed up my back. This girl is right around 60 - 70 lbs. Now I am a little more than double her wieght but man, it's hard to pick up a dog let alone one that is fighting you to put her in the tub.

    I wouldn't have given her a bath but she was COVERED in mud. She looked so nasty. Now my back is sore and I took a pill.

    All the things we go through for our babies.
