In an effort to keep our houses clean(er), before entering a house and taking off our boots, we hose off all the mud and “stuff” we have collected on both the bottom and sides of our boots.<\/p>\n

We have also, on occasion, been known to strip off more than our boots before entering a house due to more extensive mud issues. This, of course, lacks photo documentation.<\/p>\n

Managing mud migration into houses is slightly more complicated due to our resident German Shepherds. Unlike\u00a0most farm dogs here in Uruguay ours live inside and so contribute greatly to the necessary cleaning regime. Resi, with her double coat, wallows in any water puddle she can find to cool herself.\u00a0 So, she gets\u00a0a shower, not only to wash of mud, grit, sand, other stuff I don’t want to know about, and help with the smell of the other stuff, but also to cool her off.\u00a0 She loves the word “shower”.\u00a0 She also loves the word “towel” as she gets toweled dry. The dogs also, incidentally, contribute greatly to the laundry.<\/p>\n

\"showering-2\"<\/p>\n

Virkha,\u00a0who surprisingly has not developed a\u00a0double coat, barely tolerates a shower as she does not particularly like running water, nor does she wallow in mud puddles.\u00a0But what one dog does, so must the other!<\/p>\n
