My little princess? What a hoot that statement is - she's my little hunter!
We live in a rural area and have about 2 acres fenced tightly enough that our Yorkies can run alot. Lexy chases rabbits and squirrels and anything else that will run. Right now there are some baby rabbits under a storage building that she is after all the time. This morning she was under there with them. When I called her in, she was CAKED with MUD all the way up to her hips and shoulders.
Oh, what a mess. We were taking a bath at 7:45 AM! It took 40 minutes to get her bathed and dried!
Fortunately, I can close off a smaller place and not let her in the back. No more back yard for her for a while.
By the way, I found a neat pet hairdryer at the farm store yesterday (Atwoods) on an adjustable stand with 3 speeds - for $21.95! Gosh, it made drying her so easy.
