I love swimming in the ocean.
Sunday mornings is Sugar’s Beach Day!
I swim about a mile. For being a Senior dog I think that’s Pawsome.
After swimming and rolling on the sand, I get rinsed on the beach.
There are several rinsing stations on the beach.
Rinsing after an ocean swim is a must as the salt and minerals are rough on the coat and pads.
When I get home … Bath Time.
I know many of you don’t like getting a bath.
Well, I do … especially my bath includes a gentle massage.
It’s relaxing and soothing.
Mom found a very good Hawaiian dog wash/shampoo.
I’ve tested all 3 scents. On this particular bath I am using the Citrus Wipeout.
Did you read the label?
Yes it is “Naturally Magnificent Wash.” and humans/people can use it too.
Rinsing is the best part of bath time … a good water spray is a must!
Lots of Golden ALOHA n Woofs

I am joining Monday Mischief Pet Blog Hop.
Yes, there’s nothing Mischief on my Bath Time …
just want to share especially for those of you who don’t like Bath Time.
You look so relaxed! I just love the smell of a clean dog, hence the boys getting trucked to the day spa every 2 weeks. My favorite is when they come home smelling like coconut. 🙂
Wow, you look like you were having a spa day. Swimming, rinsing then massage with scented shampoo. It’s the Royal treatment.
You deserve it, Sugar. Swimming ONE MILE? It’s crazy.
I’ll be back,

Rooo you’re such a girlie – I love swimming too but no way I’d be standing still for a spa treatment afterwards *waggy tail*
jake loves his bath like you do, baby loves it AFTER we drag her to the hose. she shivers like crazy, and its not cold. you look great with soapy ripples
Do you worry about the saltwater in her eyes? I remember years ago taking Cisco to Mexico and letting her swim in the ocean, we were told (not by the vet) to try to avoid it in her eyes. We weren’t sure if it was a valid concern or not.

Sugar, you do everything with grace – even bath time 🙂 Unfortunately, the pups in this house only tolerate bath time…I guess that makes them lucky they don’t have an ocean to swim in…?
You look like you are loving your bath Sugar! I bet you smell awesome!
That does look very relaxing. I’d probably enjoy my baths more if I got to run and swim at the beach first, though!
You sure do look like you’re enjoying that bath massage Sugar! 🙂
That shampoo looks pawsome, and your swim looks like a blast.
Love your new hairdo 🙂
We has such a great time at BlogPaws. You didn’t tell us it would be so crazy though. Ha, ha. We put up our first post about it today and will post some more when we recover. Ha, ha.
Hey Sugar!
Wow, I’m not a big bath fan, but if that’s what it takes to go swimmie it’s okay with me! Sure looks like you are enjoying all of your swims and baths too. I bet that citrus makes you smell so pretty and fresh! I wish I was there with you.
Grr and Woof,
Sarge, COP

Sounds like a really nice shampoo…us girls have to have the best, right? And knowing how much mud I can get into, a bath is kinda expected now. Unless I can find a river to wash off in!
Hey Sugar, Jet here.
First of all, how do you look so beautiful all full of suds?
We had spa day yesterday. Pretty cool that your beaches have rinsing stations… Mom… can you look into that for us??? Sure Jetty…
We’re glad you like baths so you can enjoy your beach time! Our sisfur Sadie hated baths and let everyone know it!
You make bath time look fun. I don’t mind a bath but it must be in the tub inside. Font know why just how it is for me.
Blessings,
Goose
A swim and a relaxing bath, its like a spa where you are
urban hounds
You make taking a bath look like it is a very relaxing fun experience. Maybe all we need to do is get to Hawaii with you so we can get that same massage:)
Woos – Phantom, Thunder, Ciara, and Lightning
You stand there so good for you bath Sugar. Duke is OK with baths but he would much rather swim
Swimming a mile is amazing for a Senior doggie, Sugar!
We are so happy that you enjoy your bath!
Love ya lots,
Mitch and Molly

Oh nice Sugar!!! We would love for mamas to get us some of that! We bet it smells wonderful! 🙂
Happy Monday, our friend!

Hey Sugar!
You have way too much fun out there in Hawaii! Can you tell me if your new shampoo is good for dogs with skin allergies. Stetson is sensitive skin and we usually use a vet prescribed shampoo for his baths.
Happy Monday!
Colby
Hey Sugar,
I was wondering how you deal with the Sea water in your coat? I bet you smell gorgeous now buddy 🙂
Hope you’re having a fun day 🙂
Your pal Snoopy 🙂
Sugar that looks like one glorious shampoo and I bet you smell terrific!
I luv to swim – used to swim in the North Sea in Germany, it was so much fun. There I had to have a bath every time too cuz I was so full of sand and stuff, did not like the bath but it was worth it to swim. You are super lucky!
That looks like a mighty fine bath!
