Taking a shower.

After her daily round of wrestling at the dog park, Ireland will run up to the dog shower, waiting to get sprayed. Fortunately for us, she loves the water. I can't imagine having to let her in the car while she's covered in mud and looking like a coal miner.

We live downtown, in a loft without a backyard, so the only way to really clean Ireland is taking her to the dog park and hose her down. Usually, Huskies are very clean dogs but Ireland likes to get dirty when she's playing. During those hot summer days, a cold shower was also the only way to quickly cool her down.
