Well, this pug named Barry certainly isn’t. Watch here as his human, Sydney-based photographer [David Stanton](https://www.facebook.com/dks.photography.1), treats him to a luxurious bath. Of course, _s_ _ome_ dogs cower in fear when it’s bath time, but not Barry. Barry loves it so, so much. Never let society change you, Barry. Oh, and though the video does come with a cute soundtrack, we recommend watching it on mute and playing this in the background instead: ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3613513/pug-bath-barry/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3613513/pug-bath-barry/"},"headline":"Watching This Pug Enjoy a Bath Is Strangely Soothing","datePublished":"2014-12-02T15:08:31.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:14:56.097Z","description":"He's just so delighted","url":"https://time.com/3613513/pug-bath-barry/","keywords":["Newsfeed","animals","viral"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt3bc7b41cfe197491/69876bcd2dce016ae69dc1bf/screen-shot-2014-12-02-at-9-33-28-am.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt3bc7b41cfe197491/69876bcd2dce016ae69dc1bf/screen-shot-2014-12-02-at-9-33-28-am.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Screen Shot 2014-12-02 at 9.33.28 AM","caption":"","creditText":"","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3613513/pug-bath-barry/","name":"Watching This Pug Enjoy a Bath Is Strangely Soothing"}}]}] ```
