a chihuahua is bathed
8.29.2012
and you know how dogs are on this sort of event. i'm sure if loki could talk, cries for help would be sounding in a high pitch. honestly, its just water and soap. we're not asking you to swim a lap. you just have to stand there for three minutes. this little guy reacts like we're trying to make him suffer. shaking like a leaf, nervous as heck. but when you smell like you hang out all day with the skunks, baths are a must. we can't just let him go sour with every scent of the week hanging on his fur. the bathroom fills with air of sweet clean. suds cover his coat and shampoo is lathered by a gentle pair of hands. the poor thing looks longingly at the door, shooting helpless looking expressions at my camera lens. four toothpick sized legs stand dripping wet, nails clicking quietly on the white bath floor. warm water rinses off every last soap bubble, leaving behind a soaked chihuahua. towel dried and spotless, he leaves the bathroom in a towel.

haha the title of this made me happy. so did that last picture. adorable.
ReplyDeletethis is SO cute. yes. normally, chihuahua's aren't in my record of "cute", but that one is cute. :) {yeah, I had to look at your title to see how to spell chihuahua.} :) xx
ReplyDeletethe title is adorable. and so epic, really.
ReplyDeleteand let's be serious: how you got these pictures to turn out non-blurry i don't know, but i commend you. chihuahuas don't generally pose for me. or any breathing thing that isn't over the age of fifteen, for that matter.
This is the cutest blog post I've probably ever read. I want to sing it's praises. I really think it's adorable and if you don't mind I might feature it when I do some "links I love" because I LOVE this.
ReplyDeleteof course i don't mind! x
DeleteMy dogs despise bathing as much as Loki seems to. It's like their worst nightmare. Your dog is the darn cutest thing. Love!
ReplyDeleteAHH! The cuteness! He's a lovely little dog :)

You made doggy bath time look so easy! Maybe it was with a Chihuahua? It's absolutely a nightmare with a Mastiff.
ReplyDeleteloki???!!!!! awesome name!
ReplyDeleteThis made me laugh and squeal and say, "awwww!" all at the same time. So cute. :)
ReplyDeleteYOU NAMED HIM LOKI?! we must be friends mkay? :P
ReplyDeleteha! the name fits ;) he's adorable, and your words were very visual.
ReplyDeletemy dog acts much the same way when i bathe her, only she's a pitbull, so... about ten times loki's size. and she always tries to tackle me coming out of the tub.
