This is Max.
He’s a happy lab.
Bathed in love.
Now he’s bathed
in water.
A dog wash.
Every muscle,
every fibre
slouches in a beanbag
of content.
Max is in the moment.

Max and I share a happy place: the tub. Better to be bathed in love, though. More fulfilling.

thanks 🙂 Just heard from interstate that Max has had a read — and he’s chuffed 🙂 you like trawling thru my back catalogue: you might enjoy ‘Max and the Great Big Grin’ 🙂

Aww 🥰 he needs some lit candles, a glass of water and some doggie treats, so calm in his tub. Wes our lab/beagle goes nuts in the bath, he hates it. He can from a shelter (he must of had a really really first owner, he was adopted 4 times and returned because he didn’t show affection right off the bat) we loved him let him come to us at his own pace and time.

🙂 I’m glad things turned out well for Wes; it is heartbreaking to hear of dogs being maltreated; like children, they are so vulnerable

He still doesn’t know how to play with toys, but he does roughhouse with us.
