The splendiferousness of the canine olfactory

Young Charlie has proven himself a credit to his dog kind. If you are a regular reader of the blog, then you know that Sandy made a large number of new rawhides disappear in the backyard in a minute or less each. Well, today, Charlie came trotting down the side of the house in the backyard with one of them in his mouth. I was walking around the yard and there were 2 more that I think he pulled out of places. They are soggy and muddy and need to be thrown out, but hey, he found like 1/2 of them in one day (or maybe a couple, not sure when the others showed up).

Charlie got a quick bath tonight. Ben came home from driving and took Charlie right back to the tub. Charlie didn't seem to care for it at all. He has a very short, somewhat rough coat and has been a bit musky. I didn't have any special shampoo, just some stuff I picked up in the pet part of the grocery store. It seems to have helped a little, but we could probably use to do a better job.
