more doggy days

Dad decided it was time for Gabe's first bath!

wet dog!

He did great, smelled and looked lovely, and promptly ran outside to find a big stick!

The best part though is that the next morning he took a quick dip in the park ditch... 
and then our friends brought him a very special treat: a deer leg!
Ooooooh, Gabe thought he was in heaven. However, the rest of us have been put off by his raw-meat stink!
Looks like another bath is in his near future...
