Well I guess I better bathe these beasts. I got all the furniture moved so when they do the crazy after bath run around nothing gets broken.

Having two 100+ pound dogs is sometimes a challenge.

I dry my ACD as best I can then lay towels on the floor. She runs around all crazy for a few then lays on the towels and drys herself. Squirming and rolling and pushing herself along. Works better then trying to wrestle her in a towel trying to dry her.
 
One last entry and I am moving on. I knew something was amiss since she abruptly stopped laying, and then kept going to the box. I also knew, it was normal for chickens to stop laying in the winter. I feel like a big loser for not checking her and doing something sooner. In my gut, I knew something was probably going on, but just decided to watch her. Anyway, I feel a little guilty and it is also a learning experience. Anyway, I just needed to put that out there so I can move on.

I pretty much do the same. Mine get a comforter on the couch and another on the floor. They run crazy for about 15 minutes then settle down.
They both decided to go out for a bit before the bath.
Kitty won't be happy when they start running about. She is sleeping on the sofa.


Sassy, I know it likely doesn't help but there really was nothing you could do. Even if you found it sooner. They are masters at hiding things that are not right.
:hugs don't beat yourself up.

I wish I could bathe mine and have clean babies. One of mine swims in the pond daily. What are yours? I have an English Mastiff and a French Mastiff

Don't blame yourself Sassy, probably not much could be done even by a vet. Crummy stuff happens.:hugs
 
That does make me feel better, that if she was laying internally, which I highly suspect after lots of reading, there was nothing I could have done.

The Cockerels were is rare form this morning and the entire dynamic has changed in Sesame’s absence. Males and females are divided today. I am not good, if I see something, at not intervening. Chicken Language is absurd to me at times.

Hair appt moved to today, so off I go. Just finished up fried chicken at Jack’s. Yum!!! Not sure where Jack’s locations are, but if you are in Alabama, it is a must to try!

You have some gorgeous dogs!

Mine are half weimaraner and half German wire haired pointer.

Fresh and clean and full of stink eye for me.
 
Hubby just came home for lunch. His coworker has a fantastic puppy that he got about 10 months ago.
He is going to find out if the breeder will have puppies available this spring.
Its a Belgian Melinois. Super good temperament and well behaved.

:celebrate and :fl I would love to have one.
