We had to give Kaya a bath last night. Here is the story... We took Kaya to my parents house for dinner since my brother hasn't met her yet and my dad loves big dogs like her. Everything was great and she was really well behaved (except for the one incident when Roxy, my parents dog, tried to take her bone and Kaya about ate her), and she enjoyed getting free food from everyone there. At the end of the afternoon, we were getting ready to head to Jason's parents house. We didn't want to bring Kaya since she had had a long day and Cindy and Brad have wild dogs. Anyway, we loaded her up in the car and brought her back home. Jack and I waited in the car while Jason ran her to the backyard. He came back and we left. A couple of hours later we arrive back at home and there is a big dark lump sitting on our front porch. I thought it was some sort of package... but then it moved. Sure enough it was Kaya, who had dug her way out of the yard! She didn't even look like our dog because she was so dirty. We figure that she wanted to come with us and when she saw that we weren't there she curled up and patiently awaited our return. I think she is too smart for her own good! Jason put a door in the way to prevent this from happening again... but it was pretty crazy! The bath was a success and she is much cleaner now.
