So, basically here's how it went yesterday.
"What?"
"OMG, Freddie! You stink!"
"I do not!!"
"Yeah, Fred you stink."
"And it's not just your normal "hound dog stench either."
"That's not nice, Momma."
"Don't make me get all up there in your face!"
"Oh, cut it out Fred."
"Your too short to be tough."
"Look, Gloria doesn't think I stink!"
"Freddie, buddy, she eats poop." "Somehow I don't think she's a good judge of butt smell."
So I gave Fred a little extra fibre in hopes of firming things up to drain those nasty glands. (I know, I know.....but this had to be talked about) Then I got on a tangent about my living room carpet and all the dog crud that befalls it; i.e. slobber, bones, rawhide, treats, butt crud, wienie crud, hair, dander.....you know just your typical doggy crud; kicked the dogs outside for a bit and shampooed my carpet. So, when Fred and Gloria came in they weren't too happy 'cause they had to stay in the kitchen for a bit.
Now here we are. Thankful it's Thursday and the anal gland smell is gone as is the grungy carpet smell and look.
Now, we can start all over again!
Enjoy your Thursday, I know I will!!
Thanks, Cokie!

Good luck with the fiber; I usually end up at the vet for expressing; she has shown me how to do it but I am all thumbs and of course, no one likes it! Fred, you have a GREAT smile!
