Getting the Bath

Photo of black Pomeranian being bathed

We thought we would feature an “action” shot today of Darry’s bath and an “after” shot to show how worthwhile all the fuss is.  Actually, our dogs seldom do anything but enjoy all the pampering and attention.  Who wouldn’t?  I think you would agree she is smiling as is her bather.  That’s why we called …
