The field where I run the dogs is now a patchwork of 3-4 inches of mud and standing water. Add 3 Border Collies to that and you have a glorious mess...
With that long hair cleanup is probably a little harder for you. I just stick these guys in the doggy shower (mud shower in laundry room) and rinse them(one at a time, the big one's head sticks out over the edge). I'm surprised how easily mud comes off with just warm water. Especially on the white ones.

It took me 1/2 hour to clean my dogs off enough to put them in their crates in my truck Thurs & Fri afternoon after I ran them in the field. Mornings everything is still frozen. Afternoons have been the mud pits. Tonight & tomorrow we are getting heavy rain....so the next several days until it gets cold enough for everything to freeze again, it will be gross! I wish I had a mud room & doggie shower. Lucky you!

NOOOO, don´t even remind me that THIS part of the year is somewhere ahead. I live in an apartment and you have to get the whole hallway muddy to get to the bathroom and the dachshunds are so low... Fortunately we still have regular temperatures below -20C (that is less than -4 in F) so the huge piles of snow are not showing any signs of melting. Yet.
I feel everyones pain!! My back yard is a muddy mess and whats not muddy is a icy slick mess...gotta be careful with the old guy when were playing so he doesnt get on the ice and fall.
We do have one dry patch under the pine trees -ugh - i really do not like this time of year - its been especially bad this year - i;m not sure the ice and mud will clear up before Spring !!
