Baths Before Visits

I took notes as I was washing. Well, inbetween washing and drying. LOL

Here are the 4.

This is Ella's boy. He was the very first bath I did with the pups. This puppy was truly great in the water, dryer and allowed me to do his pads without any complaints. Good one, little one!

The 2nd bath was the sable and white girl. She liked the water immensely but she wasn't crazy over the dryer. She let me do her pads without issue.

This is the tri gal. As you can see, she has eyebrows that are so cute! She was okay in the water. No nervousness but didn't play like 1 did. She was great with the dryer and the pads.

This is the brown and cream sable. She played like we gave her a toy she loved. It was a riot. She was great with the dryer and the pads were easy with her.

All and all these pups were great with this experience. Some handled being held up in the air hanging better than others. You will see in the photos here. You will also see their wet and dry looks.

Tomorrow they get to meet all sorts of new humans for them.

After their bath they also went out to play on the deck. Check out the gallery here.

Look how Ella's little boy has thrived! Recall he was a breech and had a difficult debut. He will be a hit with the new families tomorrow, as will they all!

Yes, thanks to that little boy he made way for the rest. I am thankful to him for paving the way! He's a beauty too!

Ella's babies are sweet. The little boy has done very well. He has a wonderful face.

I wonder if the water loving pups will be swimmers.
