I have a neighbour that has a Staffordshire Bull terrier dog. They make the dog live on the outside balcony alwayts alone because he is dirty and smells like dog poo!. I don't think he has ever been near water. This evening I went and got him, took him into my flat and put him is my bath tub and gave him a good old scrub with doggy shampoo. He loved it and my bathroom was a complete mess and flooded and all walls spattered with muddy water.
But I don't care because now that this doggy smells and feels lovely he is now allowed inside the flat of his owners and even gets to sit on the sofa and get some love.
WIN! WIN!
