As confessed in yesterday's post, Cookie loves having a bath. He loves to be brushed and shampooed, but what he likes most is bathing in tepid water.
On Good Friday, he enjoyed his favorite bath time after a walk at Mission Bay.
He is tied, just in case, so that he won't run off, lie on the ground, and smear the dirt over his freshly cleaned body. But, that might be unnecessary, as he loves his bath time in deed.
Cinnamon doesn't like being in the water, so she is reluctant to sit in the tub. But, over time, she may learn from Cookie how comfortable it is to be in warm water.
Love the video! I wish Jackal and Storm liked baths as much as Cookie. I'd be happy to answer any questions you have about clicker training. Feel free to leave questions or comments on any of my posts. I'm not an expert, but I might be able to help you out a bit. Talk to you later!
ReplyDeleteKess tolerates the bath. But she loves to roll in the garden after her bath too! And then of course, there's the tug of war with us over the towel we use to dry her. So, what we do is bribe her with treats while we dry her.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, you are brave, Cookie! I HATE having a bath - and I hate getting wet! And I would NEVER sit in a tub of water (if there was one big enough for me - ha! ha!)
ReplyDeleteOh - I forgot to say - don't worry about not having 7 blog friends to pass the award to - that happened to me also when I first started my blog! You can just give it to any blog friends you like...however many that is!

ps. message from Hsin-Yi to Momo:
By the way, I would also be very happy to help you with clicker training - we can even meet up and I can show you, if you like. It is really a wonderful way of training and Beagles being so food-motivated should be ideal for it! I think Cookie & Cinnamon would really enjoy it - it changes a dog's attitude to training and makes them much more keen and eager to do things for you.
