Bath Time!

Good morning,

We recently had doggie bath time on the patio.

Our pups enjoy getting baths so line up in order of seniority.  Of course, Penny was first. 
Then it was Erik's turn.  They all really enjoy this.
Finally, it was Wendy's turn.
The pups easily respond to the "stand" command while Catherine washes them
and rinses them.
 They stand and wag through the entire event.
 Bill was standing by as the dryer.  At the right of this image is Bill's Penny.  Bill rescued Penny from a shelter and she already had her name.  Since we have a Penny, too, we refer to Bill's Penny as Penny, Jr.  

Penny, Jr., had never had a bath since Bill got her so it was time.  She watched all of this, but still wasn't to sure about it. 
 Back to Wendy's bath.  "Leg" and she raises her leg to be washed on her tummy.
 Wendy, our chair dog, likes to get in a chair to get dry.  Our Penny was right there for more drying, too.  Notice Bill's pants are getting wet as the dogs are getting dry.  ;)
 Oh, this feels so good!  That's Penny, Jr., in the background still watching it all.

It took all hands on deck when it was Penny, Jr.'s turn.  We all got pretty busy with that one so I didn't get any pictures.

This was fun for everyone!  Even Penny, Jr., will get used to this and enjoy it - eventually.

We always wear a swimsuit when we bathe Sheba, she never wants a bath, but loves it once it starts. And she loves the towel-dry best!
