Bath trauma

We can’t give Sahraa a bath in our house, so I found a place on Capitol Hill where we could give her one in nice surroundings, unlike another shop we found last year that was deep in a basement. She recovered from the trauma as soon as we left and I’m sure hopes we never return again.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

Sweet shot! Sahraa doesn't look too traumatized and I'm sure an after bath cookie helped.

Ha, looks like she got a good scrubbing. My guys could use a bathe too. Cute catch. V

A new look for Sahraa!

sure she thinks you should just find her a skanky creek if you want to get her wet

LOL!!! You just reminded me that I need to give my own 3 girls a bath. With all the rain, they've gone longer between baths than normal. Love Sahraa's expression in this photo. It's really cool that there is a place where pet owners can go to give their own dogs (that won't fit into the kitchen sink) a bath and not have to rely on a groomer.

I can understand that expression is she hates bathing.V

What a great idea to have a place you can take dogs for a bath. Sahraa looks quite sorry for herself. I hope she got a treat after! Sasha hates being bathed! V
