Today we had big woofie day.
2 absolutely beautiful dogs. I was so excited to meet my first Murray River Retriever Hugo. Oh, he was gorgeous. .
Beautiful big brown eyes lovingly looking at me. A real softie sookie boy.
He found one of Rosie's soft toys and wanted to carry it everywhere.
Of course he got a pressing to take home
Absolutely 100% co-operative until .....
Yes, BATH TIME. well my helper Alannah and myself tried chicken, biscuits, tricking him by standing away from the tub but when he go near enough to get the food we'd pounce on him. He's quick. So once we exhausted all avenues of getting him in the tub not to mention ourselves I rang his owner. Surprise, he doesn't like the tub. The last groomer had him harnessed up on a table and washed him. Must have been a wet room. Apparently Hugo loves getting up on tables. He sits on top of his kennel. I said he should be called Snoopy. So mum tried to get him in. Not having it.
In the end he scored a swim in the ocean on his way home.
2nd woof was sweet 8yr old Cleo a short haired Labrador. Apparently she didn't make the grade as a Guide Dog Trainee Pup so sold to a loving family.
What a sweet disposition and sooooooooo well behaved. Let me de-shed her. She also wanted to play with Rosie's toys which kept her occupied.
Then without a problem up the ranp and bathed.
Blow dry and home with her own pressing.
Monday is a very busy day with lots of little woofies so no doubt fun and tantrums will surface. And that's just me. LOL.
And of course Rosie's Happy 2nd Birthday as well so tomorrow afternoon I'll be baking peanut butter biscuits in dog and bone shapes for take home treats.
Anyone who has a dig and is in the area come and wish Rosie a Happy Birthday and take a couple of bickies for your baby.
Nearly midnight so time for sleep. Rosie's already snooring.
Night everyone.
