....gave my two dogs a bath. Outside. It was certainly hot enough! I also learned that you do not blast the gunk off your deck while you're waiting for the shampoo to do its thing--unless you want to rewash the dog.
Anyway, Flanders is fluffy for now, and both dogs are clean!
Once the dogs were clean and romping about in the yard, I did clean off the deck.

I had to give my dog another bath, too, after she laid underneath my pickup truck. Since it was hot, I gave her a bath outside. One mistake I made was laying the nozzle end of the water hose down in which she picked up in her mouth and squeezed the trigger and I got a cold shower! I think she was telling me I needed a bath too!

WAAAAAY too hot here to bathe Max outside. Max uses my bath tub. I was giving him a quick shower before we went to this dog show/expo thing. I use one of those detatchable shower heads.I learned that unless I wanted a shower as well to point it away from me before turning on the water.

Re: This past week I....
My dogs both got a bath in the lake yesterday-- shampoo not necessary. I learned that it is necessary to vacuum out the car after the ride home.
If an opportunity comes to you in life, say yes first, even if you don't know how to do it.

I also learned to be careful of behavior chains I set up. When I'm done giving Max his bath, usually I'll have him drip in the tub for a little while. Then I'll dry my hands on his towel and invite him out of the tub. This time, I shampooed him up, then for some reason I rinsed my hands and wiped them on his towel. I guess he saw that as his cue and he jumped out of the tub covered in suds. I was REALLY glad I hadn't changed to leave the house yet because there were bubbles EVERYWHERE!
