Simple joys - east coast boxer life - The Rupert Report

Daily Ablutions*, Boxer-Style   

Boxers are known for impeccable grooming habits, despite that wet stuff that flies out of our jowls after a satisfying head shake.
I lick my paws and use them to wipe my face. 
This is me getting my muzzle folds and ears cleaned by Sophie, which she does at least daily. I prefer to have a big drink of water, then go over and clean her face.
Dear departed Liz used to do both of us every day, but we have just picked up where she left off, and take care of each other.
