Dirty Girl

Buttercup is a dog who doesn't mind getting dirty, in fact I think she likes it. I just wish she wasn't white - it wouldn't look so bad then. Or I wish she wouldn't hate having to take a bath so much, then it wouldn't be such a big deal when she got absotutely stinking dirty like she does on such a regular basis. With the big dogs dirt just falls off them, but with Buttercup's delicate bichon/poodle fur - it sticks to her and turns into mats - so she's got to get into the tub. Poor Buttercup... she has fun when she's right in the middle of it though! So that totally makes it worth it.

Here's a close-up of her poor bedraggled legs with the muck all stuck to her fur - she is happier than a pig in shit at this particular moment as you'll be able to attest from the 2 pictures immediately below...

This is the picture the close-up above is taken from - Buttercup is on the look-out for something to bark at in the woods - maybe a giant evil leaf, or a swirling tree branch, or with any luck there's another dog within a 20 mile radius that she can go bark at and scare the bejeezus out of!

This is #5 in my series of Buttercup running towards me.....

Ah, a rainy Saturday afternoon...
