Hi there, I for one have been doing spring pyr clean-up.  Since it 
was a lovely spring day in Northern New Mexico, with a weather 
forecast of clear skies for a week to come, time for Mishka's spring 
bath.
A friend owns a boarding kennel and has a wonderful raised tub to 
wash dogs, so off we went.  Mishka was scrubbed clean in no time and 
let out into the back exercise yard to dry.  Mishka is a spayed girl 
with a very fine, full coat.  She looked so funny all wet with this 
tiny head and even funnier as she started to sun dry.  Her head  and 
ears stayed wet and her body started to grow. As she dried, it was 
like watching her inflate.  By that time she was feeling silly and 
wonderful and dancing around shaking and puffing up even more. The 
more we laughed the more she performed.

Once home, I just decided she would have to go out back and start 
getting dirty again, but she was so exhausted  from her ordeal, that 
she asked to come in the house, where she napped all afternoon, so, 
this morning I still have a clean, fluffy, white pyr!
