Edna got really dirty this morning. So dirty, I deemed it necessary to give her a bath! After a quick Google search, I figured out it would probably not hurt to dunk her in the tub. An old molasses cow lick tub was moved into position on the front porch for the purpose at hand.
(Notice Edna looking over the edge as the tub filled with water...she is very curious!)
I swiped the shampoo from the bathroom. Edna got organic shampoo!
I plopped Edna in the water. I was very careful not to get her head wet, as her disbudding scabs have just fallen off. The water was not terribly frigid, although she her back arched considerably. She was peaceful as I squirted a bit of shampoo and scrubbed her body.
Scrub-a-dub-dub!
I sprayed her off with the hose to get all the suds off. She smelled sweet!
I dried Edna off with an old sheet. She bounced up onto the puppies crate and proceeded to shake vigorously to get dry!
She was a wet...but clean...goat! (Her head looks sad with the scabs gone. Hopefully her hair will grow back soon!)
Thus, was the adventure of giving my goat a bath...
