Why is it non-water dogs hate baths, but...

Cubslover
Go nuts when it's over?

Charlie got a bath tonight, usually gets one a week. He hates to take one, but goes crazy when it's over. All happy and running all over the house, snorting, rolling on the floor, growling, etc.

Dogs are so strange sometimes.

    Bit is the same, Hates baths, but once you sit down with that towel and rub her, she goes into what we call "crazy" mode, running EVERYWHERE/

    What's a non-water dog?

    Sam is a Lab, so I reckon that makes him a water dog?

    Sam behaves the same way after a bath. He loves to swim, but doesn't like a bath, and he runs, sneezes, rubs and rolls after a bath.

    Maybe it's the soap?

    I have a JRT (a runty one) and she hates the pool, hates the bath but is a happy, joyful dog when the bath is over and she's fresh and clean. Probably because she gets more love when the doesn't smell like anus. And the best she ever smells is right after a bath.

    --But she finally came back--

    Eagle Lake NNW of Reno, Near Susanville ??

    I used to camp in the snow there in the National(?) Park.

    What great country.

    Oscar, our Cocker Spaniel (and my last hunting buddy) LOVED water, to the point where he would get me and himself in trouble. He would jump into the nastiest stuff you could find. He would swim for hours in any kind of water.

    Stick him in the tub and he'd start screaming like you were beating the crap out of him.

    Coming out he'd do the carpet spastic thing.

    Sam, our English Springer, hasn't figured out that water is a good thing. He definitely does not like baths, though. But he goes carpet spastic as well.
