Otis Hung the Sheets to Dry. Bruno Found a Gap Between Them.

Fresh white sheets hang from a sagging backyard clothesline, and Grandpa Otis is pinning the last corner, a clothespin in his hand and a gentle smile on his face. He's dressed in an olive cardigan and a blue shirt, his short grey beard neatly trimmed. Down below, Bruno has poked his brindle face out from between two sheets, tongue lolling in a happy pant, front paws planted on the fabric as if he owns the place. A blue laundry basket overflows with towels, a green watering can waits by the door, and a wooden fence runs behind them in the soft daylight.

Clotheslines and dogs make a fun combination, but a few precautions help. Clothespins can be a choking hazard, so it is wise to keep them out of reach, and dropped socks are famously tempting to dogs and can cause serious blockages if swallowed. If your dog likes to play in the sheets, try letting him have a dedicated towel or toy so laundry stays clean. French Bulldogs overheat quickly, so a sunny yard is best enjoyed with a shady rest spot and water nearby. A quick check that the yard fence has no gaps is a smart habit too.

The laundry will be a little dusty by afternoon. Judging by the look on Bruno's face, he considers that a fair price for the fun.
