Bath Time!

After three 90+ degree days, and few months of running wild on trails, homes and the backyard, it's time for Gracie to get a washin'! Anne, an experienced dog groomer and friend of animals, and her son Greg, take Gracie into the backyard for the ole' "garden-hose-doggie-scrub."


Well, that's one more pup who thought she was going for a walk in the neighborhood only to be surpised by the tell-tale hose with trickling water.


Uh-Oh! The look on Gracie's face suggests that she may have a very bad feeling about this...


YES! Nothing like a cool shower on a hot day, and check out the excellent conformation... it takes a lot of kibbles, bits, cookies and pizza crust to maintain a physique like that!


Gracie suggests that Anne get a little bit more behind the ears... that's where she hides the leftover snacks!


Gracie wonders, "Is that all you got? Bring it on!"


Shake it up, puppy! Gracie enjoys self drying...


... but is not exactly opposed to a good rub down now and then. Whew! Clean as a whistle... and ready to run through the bushes!

Well done, Anne and Greg... and you, too, Gracie!
