A Reprieve

Ha, my bath/groomer lady won’t be in tomorrow, so my appt. with the groomer is off.  They did’t subject me to a home bath last night, though.  Apparantly pina colada is prefereable smell to them, as opposed to eau de schnauzer.  Whatever.

They did find a new way to annoy me though.  I won some Pawz rubber boots from Lily, Trixie and Sammie Jo’s auction.  They are designed to annoy the crud outta me keep my paws from getting muddy.

Here’s a video to show that I got “used to them” while I was playing, but you can count on me to make getting them on my feet a challenge!  Oh yeah, every paw, every time will be a struggle, because I believe dogs should be in the buff outside πŸ™‚

Here’s a picture of what she considers to be our gardening shoes.  We will see!

I hope you get to play in the mud at your house!

  1. Tell your peeps it might be easier to keep wiping your paws each time you come in. he he – boots don't look like fun.

  2. Wow.. I thought you would be tryin to rip them off or somethin. Nope, you just ran like the wind and didn't even seem to notice. I am very much surprised.
    BUTT, can you did a HOLE with them on???

  3. Congrats on the getting that appointment cancelled. Did you bribe the groomer? I'm asking because I can use any tips you'd like to share along those lines. Those shoes are cute, but I don't think they're likely to be too pleasing to a Schnauzer. I mean, you're a paws on, diggy sort of doggy, right? Still, you do quite well with them.

  4. Those boots are prob'ly good for slipping and sliding on tile or linoleum. Have you tried that yet?

    We got some new booties, ourselves … got 'em mostly for the snow, but Moma realized they're gonna be good for tromping in the sea oats at the beach, too. No more sand burrs! And, apparently like you, we sorta forget we have 'em on!

    (Just goes to show what good dogs we are … ya, right!)

    See ya after your furcut,
    Your pals,
    Jake and Fergi

  5. Oh, Oskar, I so wish the Momster hadn't watched that video – I foresee some of those red boots in my future:( Mud is just so much more fun.

  6. Those look like really cool shoes… hehehhee.. both.. yours and mommas πŸ™‚ i don't wear shoes here too.. and i get mud and sand.. lotta sand in the house. *BOL*

  7. Oskar!
    It does not look like they bother you!
    They are pawesome!
    Happy Sunday to all of you!
    Kisses and hugs

  8. Sawyer does not like having anything on her paws either! Poor Oskar! But it's better than a bath, right?

  9. My mum is sooo shocked that you keep those things on AT ALL. I would've had em off faster than you can say "silly red boots"! Still, they are pretty cool! Would be good for your snows too! Tail Wuggles, Rubie.

  10. OMD Oskar those are some bad booties hee hee. I have snow boots and hate them so much. Hopefully you will get to feel the mud between your toes soon.

  11. It took Charlie a while to get used to his boots, but Emma barely even noticed she had somethin' on her footsies.

    Poor Charlie wasn't spared the grooming table/floor. He's rockin' a new do, actually. Don't worry Oskar, be strong, I'm sure it'll be painless when it does come!

  12. Don't worry. She will grow weary of putting those little boots on you in no time and you'll be back to feeling the glorious mud beneath your toes.

  13. Those boots don't look like they slowed you down much at all, Oskar. Red is so stylish!

    Love ya lots

  14. Oh my dawgness…..those red boots are pawsome! (as long as they are on YOUR hoofies!!)

    (((Hugs)) your friends
    Oskar, Schatzi & Xena

  15. Those boots sure are cute!!! They'd come in mighty pawy here!! It's been raining a lot!

    We're back finally! We sure have missed you guys!
    Woofs and Kisses!

  16. hey Oskar,

    So furry happy you got out of the bath thing. I hope luck keeps coming your way! :->

    Although I agree with you that pups are best in the buff, I must admit you look rather cute in your little red booties! And it is nice that they keep your paws warm and dry in the rain!

    Very fun video! Love your squeaky toys!

  17. Wow!! Ruby slippers. Now you need to click them together and say "There's no place like home"!

    Oh, but you're home already.

    Still maybe something good will happen if you try it.

    Love and licks, Winnie

    P.S Thanks again to you and your mum for making me Featured Blogger this week on Pet Blogs United!!

  18. Hey Oskar, we won a pair of blue ones! Middy Sue tried a set of them on yesterday & she did not mind them at all. Cool beans that you did not have to go to the groomer πŸ™‚

  19. Holy moly!!! It's like those shoes were made for you!!! I can't believe how you run around out there with those on…I'd be hopping on one leg!!!

  20. Red boots…hmmm it's fashion! I like it!
    And I love your video, you have lots of space to play outside, your patio is fabulous!
    Enjoy!

  21. Oh Oskar – I can understand how you feel about those shoes – although I have to say, they do look very cute on you!!! πŸ™‚

    Slobbers,
    Honey the Great Dane

  22. Those boots didn't seem something new to you! You didn't look bothered with them but you did make us laugh wearing them!! Err…guess you won't be able to do what you enjoy doing in the garden….digging.

  23. It's not the same if you can't feel the mud between your toes! Though the red really does suit you πŸ™‚

    Licks and lots of slobber,
    Lexi and Jasper the Danes
