Molly missed the memo

When God decided Labrador Retrievers would love the water, Molly somehow failed to get the memo.

She hates the water, won't go near the ocean, and abhors having a bath.

Here the photo is deceiving: While Molly looks to be calmly standing in her bathtub, the truth is she's straining to escape it, and her heart is beating at three times its normal speed.

Poor Molly.

  1. Poor Molly! Buddy says he knows just what she is going through. If he gets a nice brushing he worries all through it that it will lead to a bath, and then he goes right to his crate! Buddy prefers the whirlpool tub and warm water IF he does let his people give him a bath. Also Buddy gets revenge by rolling all over his peoples' bed when he gets out of the tub. Poor Molly!

  2. Molly somehow knew she was about to have a bath: Ken called to her to come into the kitchen, but she stayed in the living room as long as possible and just peeked around the corner at him. Now she's suffering from Wet-dog Syndrome. Nothing smells worse than a wet dog, unless it's a dog in dire need of a bath.

  4. Oh, but Lin, the advantages far, far outweigh the disadvantages, honest!

  5. At least she's staying there. What a good dog. She's behaving better than my granddaughter who will push her way out of the tub if she doesn't want a bath.
