:: It was Katie's lucky day today. (: Since it was neither snowing or freezing, I thought it would be a good day for a bath. I started off by making a big mistake. I brought her upstairs while I was getting everything ready. Of course, Katie figured this out and decided to play hide and seek. She would hide while I would seek. Having checked under a few beds, I finally found her under my bed. Being faster than I am, she decided to scoot out of there in into another room and under another bed. Well, she may be faster than I am but I decided that I was smarter than she was so I left her under the bed and went back downstairs hoping that she would eventually come down. Afraid that she was missing something, she took my bait. LOL After giving her a tiny bit of treat for coming down, I scooped her up and off to the tub she went. She was actually very good during her bath...didn't even try to escape which she usually does. (: The drying and grooming part was a piece of cake since she likes that and I was able to watch the Lady Huskies win a Big East tournament game against Seton Hall. Tonight should be very relaxing since Katie will be tired and I won't have to have her tennis ball in my face all night. LOL
::Mary Lou & squeaky clean Katie

:Mary Lou,
: I know the ol' Hide and Seek routine all too well LOL. As soon as Mojo hears the water running he hides. This may sound mean, but I have figured out how to trick him. After I get everything set up for his bath, I start jingling his leash. He always runs and jumps in the chair by the front door when he hears the leash because he knows he is going outside. As soon as he gets in the chair I grab him and take him for his bath. Now, he's not sure when he's really going outside or when he's getting his bath, so he jumps in the chair regardless LOL.

Shannon, you have to be two steps ahead of them all the time.LOL Since you take Mojo outside with that routine more than you give him a bath, he probably won't figure out your trickery. (: Normally, I get everything ready before I bring Katie upstairs but this time I made the mistake of not doing that. I won't do that again. LOL
Mary Lou & Katie
