"I hadn't washed the dog in the last week, so I washed the dog today."
-----------------
* when you say "a dog" it makes it sound like you're walking up and down your neighborhood, finding a dog, washing it, and then setting it free. Then a few days later, you find another dog and give it a bath. Maybe that is what you mean. But chances are, you are washing a specific dog. So you will want to say "the dog" or "my dog" (if it is yours).
