My new clumber who absolutely loves mud and wet is leading my little absolutely clean, never gets his feet wet , dog astray! He is coming in with mud all up his feathers and tummy. I have never in 6 years had to bath him but yesterday I had to, and he nearly had a nervous breakdown ! Clumber is the worst shedding, dirtiest , cardboard shredding dog Ive ever had - but he's adorable, so that mitigates everything! I am seriously considering taking all my carpets up and having dog friendly flooring.
