The boys got a bath tonight

[John Thomson]

Well Diesel and Murphy were stinking so got put in the shower and given a scrub......Murphy in particular was covered in fox sh1t.........Marcella had to scrub and groom him.........I bet he will roll in it as soon as he gets out again
Does anyone else have this problem?

yeh both of mine love rolling in fox, badger or even dead things to disguise there own scent .... wee mingers. Our old JRT Jock used to roll in dead birds and fish on the beach across from home all the time it was disgusting At least it's relatively easy to wash the wee ones

[marcella]

wasn't an easy job tonight! There I was stripped to a pair of knickers and a vest and in the shower cubicle with them! Me and a GSD in the shower means zero room to move! I felt a hard lump on Murphy's back and immediately thought it was an injury as it was right down at the skin under the fur. Well when I soaked it and managed to loosen a bit the stench hit me! I took ages to get it all out!

[JennyMc]

John Tala does it all the time as we are surrounded by foxes(cocky b*****s too) but Bear doesn't.


Marcella what a picture I had from your description

[Janis]

can't say my two are guilty of it but it still may come!

and i agree with jenny .......................the picture you painted was class and i wish i had been a fly on the wall!....

are you planning to apply for "miss wet t shirt competition" anytime soon!.............i'm sure john could get you an application form!

however i have always threatened to do something similar as our two try to get into the bath while i'm having a bath! might just do it one time and bathe the pair of us in one go!........................i have a funny feeling i may come out dirtier than i went in though!!!!

yeah 'Miss Wet Tshirt' but covered in dog hair and smelling of fox poo!

I'm just glad I have a short haired dog - you can just wipe him down with a chamois.

Unless he's been in a bog - then it's hose or bath.

Rolling in fox poo is a favourite Beagle revenge on the owner who won't let them down the badger hole.
Luckily, or unluckily, Misty is too old to go running now and she doesn't do it any more. Although she will roll in anything left by a neighbour's cat. It won't help her catch him but she likes to dream.
I used to get 2 Beagles in the shower, me dressed like Marcella, to get it off. Basil goes to Trish to get bathed. Danes have no desire to roll in fox poo thank good. Can you imagine 2 Danes and me trying to get in the shower?

I am Sooooooooo glad my 2 don't do that.
You are a brave woman Marcella!!!

Lady and Skye did have a bath last night but it was all mud from play fighting at he Loch
The song "brown girls in the rain" comes to mind

I think rolling in fox poo is one of Rusty's favorite past times
He stinks and it gets worse when the water hits him for some reason

[Lisa/Colin]

I used to have a lab Ben who rolled in everything, the smellier the better!!!
thank goodness ollie and (so far) hektor dont go in for that sort of thing! (Lorna and emma, as my GD experts, i will hold you to the 'not rolling in dead things behaviour', if Hek does it, we're coming to yours for a shower!!!!
