No, we didn't force him...

Bauer is a very strange dog. He's started to bark at us when we're in the bathroom. Why? Well, he's decided that he likes to lick up the water on the floor of the shower. No lie, I could be in the bathroom, nowhere near the shower and he'll bark and bark and jump at the shower stall door. I've put a water bowl up there for the dogs to help the situation, but there must be something about the mildly soapy aroma of the shower floor that he likes.

This all started when one day either Chris or myself (I really don't remember which of us for sure) started the shower and left the door open to let it get warm for a few seconds. When we stepped away, Bauer tentatively stepped in and started lapping up the water. Now it is a constant battle with him to get him out of the shower so we can get in and wash up. He's also taken to barking at me when he hears the tub water turned on... I often use that faucet to fill my cup and water the plants in the bathroom. Yesterday I picked him up, put him in the tub and turned the water on to a dribble. He did the same thing as in the shower... lapping up the water as it ran down.

Stepping in...




Gettin' comfortable...




Shower water - YUM!




Shower floor - YUM!




Wet doggie!
