The fear
The betrayal
The horror
Oh, the humanity!
The hope
The impatience
The disbelief
The forgiveness
The unconditional love
The floof

"I DARE you to try that with me," Max, probably.

What a cutie

My grandpa had a lab mix she loved taking baths if you just looked at her and said bath she would run in the bathroom and jump in the tub

Serious business getting scrubed up perhaps :::singing a tune might help for pretty pooch :: cat likes a freah scent too
PeopleSeemToHaveLongNamesOnImgur
The one labeled "the horror" to meet looks like "the darkness" .... ........ my old friend.
YougotthetouchYougotthepower
what a super cute pup
clooney900
to avoid bath trauma, give them treats while they are sitting in the tub then let them get out on their own, eventually they come to 1/2
clooney900
associate it with treats and good times.

The derp.

And directly after bath the running around and rolling around in the grass . Ensuring grass stains (I had a white dog).
Colanah
I miss my dog... she used to bowl us over trying to get IN the shower/bath with us. Unlike her mother. Fought like a cat to stay dry.
Loser37
With my dog you'd have to include a stage for drinking the water directly out of the faucet
SteakForPresident
The last one should have been labeled "The pkoting"
mydakotaandanamaybegonebutnotforgotten
My dog if she even hears the word "bath" goes and hides
Nikilynn0125
FP!! She's a deserving dog! Thanks!
SABill
Give the cat a bath and send us pics.
Tinebra
I can't believe how beautiful your dog is, I love him!!
craftyfox
I washed our dog the other, she hates getting a bath, but loves the walk afterwards. She gave the betrayal look when I didn't walk her.
iluvbunbuns
That was a rollercoster of emotions. Your doggo reminds me of my chocolate lab Duke. I miss and love you chocolate man!!! You went too soon.
Loser37
That last pic should have just said "The cat"
tryhardtechy1169
you forgot the "run around house with joy that it's over" followed by "pawing the snout like just got done eating food" stages.

The comment
snakeoilsalesman
The running into the garden and immediately rolling in a dead hedgehog.
RalphieisaGoodDog
Or in my Ralph's case, a freshly laid turd mound :p
ButteryButtsButterflyCups
oh my dog loves to roll in dung. bird poop. dog poop.
snowfork
Now do one with giving Max a bath.
Nikilynn0125
Max is ancient. He'd be less than appreciative
DrPorkchopES
How ancient, my cat's 19 and haven't met someone with an older one yet
snowfork
I think the oldest cat recorded was almost thirty
Nikilynn0125
He's not as ancient as yours! I believe he's around 14 or 15
SoHighFashion
Give me a bath, I fucking dare you. @Nikilynn0125
jsk39
The eyes, the lab, the better smelling lab, then the first walk after the bath and finding something stinky to roll in LAB
Nikilynn0125
Yes! Her favorite things are worms. Ugh
jsk39
My baby bless her heart once found something so bad after a bath I can't even post it here or anywhere
jsk39
I'd give anything to have it all again. So enjoy your stinking lab , lol ???? bath lab and stinking lab they rock
azzabat
Get in the bath with your pupper. The look of confusion, then of joy is amazing.
ASOIAFgymcoach
My dog hates baths. Maybe this will help
ButteryButtsButterflyCups
i tried this . unfortunately he was still afraid. my pupper shakes, he gets so afraid.
NeoHelios
Is there actually a scientific reason why dogs hate baths so much? Is it the noise of the water and their sensitive hearing?
twfeline
It could be that the bath water is so cold. Dogs have a higher body temperature than people.
Nikilynn0125
I think they don't like their smell changed. They like to stink!
iluvbunbuns
I think that's why they roll around and run dirt and grass on themselves. So they can get their smell back on them.

You forgot "The zoomies". Never once had a dog that didn't run laps around the house like a demented psychopath after a bath.

Post bath zooms are the best!
Lulabel73
I call it post bath naked romp. Even if I don't wash her head she goes crazy rubbing it in the carpet.
TooSadToCare
DRY OFF ON EVERYTHING
yamatto
Ayup. First your dog rolls in cow afterbirth, then you chuck him in a trough to rinse, then hurl him an old towel to run excitedly around
yamatto
the house with. n.b. Stage 1 may be more difficult with larger dogs.
Nikilynn0125
I have a bath zoomie post on my page!
Jenvas
I was gonna comment about that too. Our terrier-mix used to go absolutely nuts.
SexDrugsBirdsandRocknRoll
Dude, what is that? Our far little sausage dog would lose her shit after every bath
IRegretThisUsername
The zoomies are where a dog who's had a bath runs around like Mr Freeze is on its ass

shinagami091
My mini dachshund would do that too.
amypoehlerbear
My dog zoomies and rubs herself all over ever square inch of carpet in the house. Looks like she got electrocuted the way her fur sticks up!
BarryInTheStreetsOliverInTheSheets
rubbing up against the furniture, the walls, the carpet....
Severtal
And the shakes

Thesaya
We used to have to put out towels and stand on them to keep them still, otherwise he would use our beds to dry off in between zooms
WeatherWeaver
I think you deserve many upvotes for that title! I hope you get them :)

I'm alive, I'm a survivor, I perseveeeeeeeered
jeeps005
decent zoomies
iluvbunbuns
Yippee! OP delivers!
AnonOmis1000
You know I don't think mine would. She doesn't like water, but she's super docile. She won't fight you.
Horus175
I'm talking about after the bath is over and after you've dried them off. Your dog doesn't get the zoomies? Weird.
AnonOmis1000
Well I don't give her a bath myself. I take her to a groomer. And after she's usually just excited to GTFO, not that she runs around.
