Shaking off the grass (2007)

Ah yes, after a nice dip in the pond, and getting all nice a clean ...

Then Frito would roll in the grass and dirt to dry himself off as if he were on a towel.

But he wasn't on a towel ;-)

So then he had to shake not only water off, but all kinds of dirt and grass drek.

And we'd probably have to give him a bath later that same day (ha!)

Check out how steady Frito's nose is in the picture, and how everything perfectly rotates around its axis.

Very impressive!

Nothin' but fur (2007)

And speaking of shaggy.

Check out the after-bath shakes.  Fur is spinning everywhere (and water is in the air ;-)

You can see Frito was mostly fluff.  He was always in pretty good shape.

Shake it off

So after being ceremoniously (or was that ritually ;-) drenched with water, what's a doggie to do?

Well, of course, shake it all off!


There, now I look all better, don't I?

And cool now, too! I guess there is a method to Alpha's madness ;-)

Glad to meet ya

Well, hey, how are you doing? Very happy to meet ya!

Sure, you can shake my paw anytime.

Shake it up, baby!

This is in honor of my grooming session yesterday.

Ya see, I don't have a nice shaggy mane any longer with which to "shake it up, baby." And as I'm sure all faithful readers of Frito-a-Day understand, this is needed after a bath to dry myself off.

And so, with apologies to the Beatles:

Well, shake it up, baby, now, (shake it up, baby)
Twist and shout. (twist and shout)
Cmon cmon, cmon, cmon, baby, now, (come on baby)
Come on and dry it on out. (dry it on out)

Well, work it on out, Frito. (work it on out)
You know I look so good. (look so good)
You know I got me goin, now, (got me goin)
Just like I knew I would. (like I knew I would)
...You know you twist your Alli girl, (twist, Alli girl)
You know you twist so fine. (twist so fine)
Come on and twist a little closer, now, (twist a little closer)
And let me know that you're mine. (let me know you're mine)
...Well, shake it, shake it, shake it, baby, now. (shake it up baby)
Well, shake it, shake it, shake it, baby, now. (shake it up baby)
Well, shake it, shake it, shake it, baby, now. (shake it up baby)
Ahhhhhhhhhh(low) Ahhhhhhhhhh(higher) Ahhhhhhhhhh(higher) Ahhhhhhhhhhh(high)

Shake it off

Omigosh! What is this? A sweater?

Come on -- isn't it still summertime?

Maybe I can just shake the darn thing off!
