Dingos Gets Bubbled Up

5 November 2004

Our girls get the best of everything. They even get bathed weekly; but it's not an ordinary bath. No hoses or buckets for these girls - they have their own hydro-bath. So not only are they getting clean - they are getting a lovely massage at the same time! Dingoes naturally keep themselves very clean; our baths are just an extra indulgence! On a serious note though, the main reason we hydro-bath our girls is for their health. The area around the Zoo is home to a type of tick called the paralysis tick, that can course serious illness or even death, so this regular check over is essential. So next time you see our healthy, clean, happy girls, you will know that their secret is a luxurious one but also an essential one.
