The Big Sandy Mountaineer -

Last week I had to wash my little dachshund, Fala. Fala needed washing badly and since he was going to be spending a lot of September at Lake McDonald it seemed like the right thing to do.

Let’s get one thing straight at the outset. Getting washed is the second worst thing that a person could do to Fala. If you are interested in the first worst, it is shaving around his rear end. That sends him into a frenzy of depression until the fur has all grown back.

So, giving Fala a bath is not as bad as that.

When I fill up the kitchen sink with water, Fala knows what is going to happen so...
