The Pug Climbed Into the Tub Before the Water Was Even Off

AI imagepugbubble bathbathroom

A black Pug with a white chest sits in the middle of a bathtub piled with white foam, his dark eyes looking up in surprise. A bit of bubble sits on his flat nose and his front paw rests on the rim of the tub. Shampoo bottles and a plant sit by the window, with warm light spilling in. It is a spa day, whether anyone planned one or not.

Pugs are small, sturdy dogs with wrinkled faces and a big love of company. They are playful and loving, though their short noses mean they can have trouble in heat and humidity. Warm baths are fine for most dogs, but the facial folds should be dried carefully, because moisture can cause skin irritation. Using dog-specific shampoo is wise, since human products may irritate the skin, and a rubber mat helps with slippery footing.

Many dogs dislike baths at first, so use treats and a gentle tone to make it a pleasant event. After the bath, a towel and a warm spot for drying are important, and your vet can suggest how often to bathe him.

He looks like he is thinking about all the choices that brought him here. At least he is clean, and the bubbles are very flattering. Pugs are also famously good at looking sorry, so nobody will have the heart to stay annoyed.
