Mom & I went for a hike with pals Winter, Gail & Joe the other day. Here’s what I looked like when we started out…I’d just had a bath & was all clean & fluffy…not a good look for me in my opinion.
I had to do something to get myself looking right…ah ha a stream….this will help…
Oh yeah, now I’m on the right track…
But I’m still not really “there” yet…perhaps a roll in the leaves will help…
Winter looks on, wondering whether she should join me…Look how shiny white she is…
Ah…this is it! Now I’m looking right!
So take it from me pals, no matter what your hoomins do to you, with a little effort & some mischief you too can get yourselves lookin’ like a dawg. Gizmo out!

Gizmo, you look adorable before and after. Grooming and then going for a hike is a sure fire way to get you needing another grooming. Lynda and I can guarantee rain or snow. Just have me groomed and within a day it rains or snows.
But two baths in two days! No dog should have to suffer that BOL! *snoogles* to you and BJ!
I hope you got delicious cookies during your bath. You deserve it.
Cookies come after I get dried and yes, there’s more than one for trauma like this BOL!
You look as though you had a great time! I bet you get more cuddles with the clean and fluffy look though.
You are so right Clowie…had to sit in the back seat on the ride home instead of my favored spot up front…then 45″ to get all the burrs out, and then, yes…another bath…Hoomins are so picky about a little dirt, aren’t they *Mondaysnoogles* to you
Gizmo you are MY kinda doggy!! I’m with ya all the way! Barks and licks and love, Dakota
“getting right” and smelling funky are what it’s all about, right Dakota my pal…glad you agree! *snoogles*
Ya you got the doggie look going there. Your mom was probably not happy though.
Mom is pretty good about it all..She laughs at me a lot…she likes to see me having a good time, and it’s nothing a little combing and a bath won’t fix *snoogles*
LOL ! This so reminds me of me and my sister – she is big and white, hates to be dirty or wet, I am short and tri color and love to be as wet and messy as possible – hate that freshly groomed look and feeling – great job you did! Appaws, Appaws!!!
Ah thank you Emma…Good to get props from an expert …what’s up with those white dogs anyways? Messier the better is my motto!
OMG you really did a number!! Did your mom give you another bath? I know I would have insisted on it. 🙂
Yeah, there was another bath 😦 but lots of treats too so I recovered from my trauma *snoogles*
Oh, Gizmo – you are so dirty = had a fabulous time
oh yes it was most pawsome…Thanks fur stopping by *snoogles*
Woof! Woof! Oh my sooo Time for a BATH!!! Happy MM. Lots of Golden Woofs, Sugar
Hiya Sugar! yes it was definitely bath time…but it was some pretty good mischief! *snoogles*
EXcellent, dear Gizmo. What is it with these humans and their “cleanliness is next to Big Bearded Entity In The Sky” thing? Always making things into their own image. Tiresome. Earthy beings = 1, Tiresome human carbon life-forms = 0. Hi 4 to you from the felines over @ Catself. We’re from Arkansas. We know from earthy.
Howdy & welcome! Good to know that kittehs agree with me about the whole “cleanliness is…” thing; but iz easier for you cause you get to bath yurselfs and i have to get into the tub full of water…aaargh! *kittehsnoogles*
Hahahaha! It’s time for a bath, methinks. hope you enjoyed it while it lasted!
I had so much fun that even a bath couldn’t spoil it…Thanks fur stopping by!
Well aren’t you adorable! Clean or dirty! BOL
Why thank you *blushing* I do my best…makes my mom so happy when I make her laugh *snoogles*
Gizzy! – Sorry Kirby insists on calling you that! This is the exact replica-ness of Kirby when we take a walk in the woods….just another wonderful/ horrible trial of being a little white dog,eh?!, lol
BOL! That’s what my Auntie Terisa calls me too 🙂 And you should hear what my mom calls me G Man. Little G, Gizzer…the list is endless BOL! Nothing more fun than getting dirty in the woods let me tell you…right Kirby my Pal?! *snoogles*
“At least your are still manly, I get shortbread! Really?! and the worst Vanilla cake! -My ma’s friend started that when I was a pup.Do I look like a desert to yous?! I mean I can’t even imaginify what my name would be if I was a girl, probably something like strawberry-cupcake!”
Kirby I can tell you’re all dawg…Manliness is more than fur deep…it’s all attitude my pal and yours is all guy…How about if I call The Kirbster from now on? That’s a guy’s name 🙂
“I would definitely like the kirbster! You makin’ me feel manly-man already!”
consider it done my man!
Oh my. Gizmo. Oh my. You’re … that’s … oh my.
Aw, it’s OK…It all comes clean in the bath…I do have a talent for scruffiness though 🙂 *snoogles*
LOL Gizmo that is really great advice and looks like fun!
I bet you get pretty muddy when you do field work… but who cares as long as you’re having fun
Hey Giz, Jet here. Hi Miss JG.
Dude, Mom will not agree with my comment but… you are an inspiration… every technique, each nuance, each layer of detritus… 4 paws up…
From Mom… Sorry Miss JG, it’s rough to watch them sully your grooming masterpiece in minutes!
*HighPaws* Jetty my man…I can teach you all the tricks…just don’t tell your mom
Miss Lori…it’s OK, the laughs are worth it
Oh My Gizmo, I think the thing that really got My Vickie was the burrs in your head. When I get them, it takes hours to get them out.
I like the Mud look on you.
Love
Bert
Yes I think the mud really brings out my eyes…The burrs are another story…took almost an hour to comb them all out but they were an impawtant accessory to my look *snoogles*
Wow looks like you had fun on your hike, huh?
🙂
Cotton
The dirtier the better pal…More dirt = more big dawgie fun! Thanks for visiting!
Hi there Gizmo! Thanks for stopping by to say hello!! You are one cool pup!! LadyBug loves to just roll in STUFF…preferably dirty stuff…just like you!! xoxo Chloe and LadyBug
Hiya Chloe & Ladybug Rolling IS big dawgie fun even if the bath comes next *snoogles*
You look just perfect! I don’t know why peeps are always trying to get all of our good dirt off.
Nubbin wiggles,
Oskar
Thanks Oskar…I knew a guy dawg would understand *snoogles*
Now that’s the way to do it, my kinda Pal 🙂 BOL.. xx00xx
Mollie and Alfie
Hey Thanks Alfie! *snoogles*
Hey Gizmo, I’m with you… a dog should look a little…scruffy! (P.S. But, please don’t tell my dog, Y-bo, that! LOL)
(shhh… I promise it’s just between us) *snoogles*
Oh Gizmo,
There’s no mistaking it, that’s some great Mischief buddy!! Love it!! Tee Hee
Wags to all
Your pal Snoopy 🙂
Praise from the master…that feels great! *snoogles*
Whoaa…look at you all dirty like that!!
But most important is…you had fun 🙂
Hiya Kroten…I guess it’s harder fur a turtle to get dirty…no fur to get stuff stuck in *snoogles*
We can also get dirty…in mud 😉
Hadn’t thought of that! I picture you in water but not in mud..Still learning all about you and your friends 🙂
