Washing The Dog
I’ll take a brief hiatus from the summer vacation travels to recount the washing of S’s dog Nick yesterday. Nick needed a bath, and S put him in the tub. The problem is that you need to get into the tub with Nick in order to give him a thorough cleansing, and Nick doesn’t like to have a bath. I was waiting with the towel, and he tried to escape a couple of times. In the final rinse stage, he started edging out. S let him go. He started to shake and wag his tail, dangerously close to the countertop where there was a full glass of beer. My comment? “Save the beer!” Remember the important things when bathing a dog: keep the beer out of danger. Happy September my friends.
