Excerpt from "Bite This Book: The Book You Read To Your Dog""
Not A Bath! (By Juve)
by Lony Ruhmann
It’s a bath, got to run.
Where can I hide?
Where can I be safe?
I do not want to hear my name.
Nobody say my name.
“Juve, bathtime.”
Got to think fast.
I’ll hide behind his big chair
and be real quiet.
“Juve, I see you, come on let’s go.”
I’ll pretend I did not hear that.
They are getting closer.
This is not good.
They are carrying me to the bath.
The water is getting louder and louder.
They are talking sweetly to me.
But I don’t hear the sweet words,
I hear the water.
They are trying to get me to jump
into the tub.
I’ll act like my body does not work.
Maybe they’ll get tired of this.
Maybe they will give up
and let me go.
They are placing me in the tub now, oh no.
Feel the water on my feet. don’t like that.
Why am I in a waterhouse?
Water in pond – good.
In river – good.
Water in house bad!!!
I’ll keep to the edge of the bath.
I’ll just poke my nose
out the shower door here…
Hey, they are pouring water over me.
What is going on here?
They treat me like a baby,
Don’t they know who I am?
Water is everywhere.
Water is all over the place.
They got me now,
I’m all wet.
Got to relax,
I know they got me now.
