Camping with the Fur Butts! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

So, Thursday to Sunday we went camping with Catherine and Stitch.

It was a blast! It was really hard keeping them on the leashes the whole time (except in the tent) and it was so hard for them to get comfortable during the day it was so hot. But, we went swimming a lot and occasionally I'd take them for a drive to cool down.

All in all we had a greattime! I had never taken either of them swimming so it was really neat to see them gradually decide to get in and get wet and actually SWIM!

Now they both love it!

One day, after coming back to the camp site from a swim in the river, Catherine went NUTS rolling around in the dirt and grass and moss. She was super dirty. I am posting a pic. Anyway, so, Catherine and I had our first shower together at the camp bathrooms.

she hated that, boy! But, I had to do it, she was so gross after rolling around all wet.

LOL, oh yeah, she had the time of her life. for once I let her get dirty as much as she wanted.

Of course, I didn't let her stay dirty for more than 10 minutes.

Looks like she had a ball. We take Pistol camping quite often and he loves it. He also loves swimming. The getting dirty part is par for the course. Thank God for campgrounds with showers !

What a riot! She looks a mess but....with a beautiful bow on her head. We take ours camping. So they done't have to be on a leash, we bring an exercise pen with. They get to be outside with out being on a leash. Too funny.
