You slipped away from me
I simply lost my grasp
You ran away from me
Guess you didn’t want a bath.
I chased you around the house
Up the stairs, then out the door
Soap and water everywhere
On the ceiling and the floor.
I almost grabbed your tail
But never wanted to hurt you
Just tried to keep you clean
Free of bugs, what could I do?
Once you got outside
You were happy playing in the yard
I tried my best to care for you
I really did try hard.
Can an old dog learn new tricks?
I would say that they sure can
You figured out a way
You figured out a plan.
You knew just what to do
You saw your chance for an escape
You got yourself right out of there
You got away for goodness sake.

This is utterly cute. Filled me with memories of trying to give a bath to my black lab.It was a struggle every single time.
You have defined it so well.

Thank you! I’m lucky that my dog is small. Fortunately, she has never tried to jump out of the tub. 🙂
