This hefty hound really did not want to have a bath - so his owner had to drag him across the grass to get him to the hose.

The English bulldog, named Doughnut, was not expecting a wash at his home in Orange County, California.

He spotted the coils of the hose from afar and decided to resist - by playing dead.

Bulldogs are real characters. Wonderful companions.

They easily become naughty and spoilt!

The smells we hate are the smells they love.

That must be true. Hubby accidentally bought dog treats for our cats... oh, they smell nasty. The cats did not like them.

My dog Doggie Dog, a beagle, knows exactly when he is going for a bath and toenail trim. Hides out and since I live in the country, it is hard telling where he is. Had to go down the road the last time in the car and return and there he was seeing who was coming up the driveway. . .grrrrrrrrrrrrr. I have come to the conclusion that all Doggie Dog needs is the basic wash and forget the dryer thing. . .the gal towel dries him and off we go. . .. . .old Doggie Dog hits his hunting grounds as soon as he gets out of the car.

Panted and insisted on attention in the form of pets and back rubs. Great dogs.

It's 3am and I'm still up having YET another beer. What a life! Retirement is awesome!

Duchess aka Madam, my 13 year old Bulldog would agree with that. She is the best dog we’ve ever had. She’s old now and I know that soon we will lose her and we will miss her terribly when that happens.
