A Pomeranian Climbed Into a Bubble Bath Nobody Had Run for Her

AI imagepomeranianbubble bathbathroom

The bath was never scheduled, yet here is the proof that it happened. A cream Pomeranian named Cotton sits in a bathtub overflowing with white bubbles, her fluffy coat damp and her ears pulled back. The suds reach up to her chest, and a small yellow duck bobs somewhere behind her. Towels hang on the rack, a plant sits by the window and the whole bathroom smells like soap.

Many Pomeranians are bold, lively little dogs, and some of them love water more than their owners expect. Others do not, so it is good to introduce baths gradually with praise and treats. Their double coat is thick and takes a long time to dry, which is why a good towel rub and a warm, draft-free room matter afterward. Brushing before and after a wash prevents mats.

Human bubble bath and shampoo are not designed for dogs. They can irritate the skin and are not safe to swallow, so use a dog shampoo and keep soap out of the eyes and ears. If your dog drinks a lot of suds, call your vet. Always keep a close watch when a dog is in the tub, since slippery surfaces can be risky.

Cotton looks a little sheepish but also a little pleased. She sits like a tiny queen in a bubble kingdom, and it is not entirely clear she plans to get out soon.
