Boy did Raffles and I have a good time today. We had front row seats to see Maleka get a bath. Mom had to lock herself and Maleka in her kennel in order to give her a bath. Maleka makes such a big deal out of it. She loves to jump in the river, so it's not the water she hates. She had Mom running all over the kennel to get her wet and soap her up and then rinse and dry her. It was a fun show at least for Raffles and me. The only way it would have been better is if we would have had popcorn.

Now that it's over, Maleka looks so clean and fluffy. You might not know she was the same dog. At least Maleka didn't bite Mom. But as soon as she was released from the kennel she ran to her dirt holes. Mom was surprised she didn't really get too dirty. I think Maleka enjoys being clean. She just doesn't like to lose control. When Mom wasn't looking she went into her clean kennel and laid on the quilt. She loves a clean house. Mom even put throw pillows on her straw couch so people can come by and visit with her.

She's a funny girl. She is exhausted now, she lying on the porch outside our window. She is so tired that she's resting her head on the porch railing.

Mom stayed home all day with us. It was great.
