CHIHUAHUA'S BATH

by BRENDA CLARK
(CROWLEY,TX.)

I HAVE 2 LITTLE CHIHUAHUA'S AND IN THE WINTER I BATH THEM BOTH WITH BABY POWDER. I POWDER THEM DOWN REAL GOOD AND MASSAGE IT IN REAL GOOD THEN I USE A SHEDENDER AND BRUSH THEM OUTSIDE AND PUT WHAT LITTLE HAIR THAT COMES OUT IN A SMALL PAPER CUP AND PLACE IT IN A SHRUB. THERE ARE BIRDS COMING DOWN ALL DAY TO GET THE HAIR TO MAKE A NEST. WE LIVE IN A VERY SECLUDED AREA WHERE THERE ARE MANY BIRDS.THE AREA WE LIVE IN IS A RETIREMENT RESORT AND THERE ARE OTHER ELDERLY FOLKS HERE THAT DO THE SAME WITH THEIR PETS HAIR.WE ALL ENJOY THE DIFFERENT BIRDS WITH THEIR BEAUTIFUL BRIGHT COLORS.
