Freshly washed dogs do not always stay that way for long, and this roundup proves it in the funniest possible way. One minute these pups are clean, fluffy, and camera-ready, and the next they are back in the mud like the bath never happened.

These before-and-after photos come from dog owners who know the struggle all too well, especially after a groomer visit or a long bath at home. The results are equal parts frustrating and adorable, because somehow a muddy dog can still look completely innocent.

Below are 30 freshly washed puppers who found the nearest puddle and committed to the bit. Read on.

This cutie went on a playdate!

Okay, this dog is ready to take her ex-husband to court to double his child support payments, and she makes no damn apologies for that. NOT. ONE!

Of course, the evidence is usually right there on their paws.

Is this not okay?

"Is this not good?"

Oh dear...

"Ran through the tall weeds with her Velcro fur. It took a bath and nearly 2 hours of brushing to get them all out."

I promise it's not for me; it's for someone else. I swear.

"Anyone know how to clean a bath? Asking for a friend."

You can tell he'd just had a bath, too...

"Very first time I stuck my head in thick mud. Mum was absolutely horrified but then started laughing. No one wanted to pet me on the walk home, though."

Lookin' so proud.

"Someone found the only mud puddle in the dog park."

Lookin' so proud.

Somehow, they always look proud of themselves afterward.

And if you think muddy puppers are wild, this dog mom’s comeback to her mother-in-law over “not pretty enough” is even better.

Straight up wearing the Stuart Weitzman over-the-knee boots I've been saving for!

"Oh, you dirty dog."

No... No, I cannot.

"Can you believe it’s the same dog in both pictures?"

No... No, I cannot.

At least she took her tutu off first.

"Gabby found a mud hole to cool off in."

Just a touch...

"Was asked if Martha ever got muddy. Well, yes. A little."

Just a touch...

... It's me. I do.

"Hands up if you love mud puddles."

... It's me. I do.
chroniclesofindiana

At this point, the mud is basically part of the outfit.

Is it me, or is this just kind of a handsome-looking dog!?

"Doesn't he look fetching in his mud suit?"

And just like that, bath time was overruled by mud.

Want another “diaper duty” disaster story, where dad finds his dog cleaning up? Here’s what happened when he stepped away to grab a diaper.
