What was I thinking?

Someone at a show recently asked me if all I did was wash Poodles...yep, sometimes I think that is the case!

(This picture was at the start of our run. I don't think I could duplicate this shot if I tried! This was not staged, and all I wish was that I had taken them out a bit earlier so that this spot was in the sun.) So take a look at Barbie on the right. Beautiful white coat which was bathed on Sunday, Bunny was in the bath Monday... It was about here where the trouble started. Barbie joined Juno, Emma and Bridgit in the ditch...those darn Shelties led her astray. The dirt falls off the Shelties and other things like picks and burrs rarely cause problems.
This is how she looked when she came back! ((Sigh))
The long grasses stuck to her coat like Velcro! I don't think this is the suggested method for coat care and maintenance!
Yes, she enjoyed herself; but guess what? It is bath time again!

Foo didn't fare any better. She has hundreds of picks on her legs!

Poodle and puddles

Even though this picture is on our blog, I felt it deserved to be seen here as well! Bunny mastering the high jump!

Wet. Wet. Wet.

Still having trouble with the brakes...even with elastics!
Wet. Wet. Muddy! Yuck!!! But she had a blast. She really needed to get her "ya ya's" out.
