Bailey and Katy came to us as rescues. We lost Bailey in June of 2016 and Katy in November of 2022. We were blessed to have Annie join us in August of 2016.

Spa Day
Saturday was spa day. Mom likes to make a big deal of spa day and Dad keeps telling her it is nothing like the stories she tells. No long gossip sessions under the hair dryers, no warm towels, etc. That was until she told him about the oatmeal baths and then to his amazement when Katy had dry skin, they suggested an oatmeal bath and Dad nearly burst out laughing. Score one for Mom. Since then we have been getting oatmeal baths and man does our skin notice it.
The dryer thing, well Dad just wasn't buying that. Then Saturday he called to find out if we were ready only to find out, yep, Katy was in a drying crate. Dad didn't find out if she was gossiping with the "girls" and she'll never tell. However, he's stopped mocking Mom's stories.
Dad figured he'd better grab a shot while Katy's bow was still in her hair. She loves her spa days, but once home, the beauty effects don't last long. Hair ribbons gone and mud appears.

Nothing better than a spa day - well a no spa day.....spa means bath - bath means water - water mean shrinking.... shrinking is bad :)
ReplyDeleteLove your pretty bow Katy and love the bow tie Bailey. You two look pawsome!
ReplyDeleteWe hate baths or anything like that. Get down and get dirty we say. However glad you enjoyed it. Looking good even if it does not last long. Have a marvelous Monday.

Looking good. I have never had a spa day, well I havn't had one that involved getting the skunk spray out of my short furs.

There's nothing like a whole lot of pampering. :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun day.
ReplyDeleteYou both look gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYou look great. We never get spa days. We are going to have to bring this up with the humans. The best we get is a clean pond to rinse off in. :)
