I noticed a lot of people bathe their dogs in differnt ways, some in a pool outside, some with the hose(on cement or somthing) some in the bathtub, some little dogs in the sink, so how do you bathe your dogs?

Outside with a hose/shower type spray that I bought from a pet site. I would prefer to bath Bob inside in the bathtub but I can't lift him and he won't jump in. :)

I bathe the big dogs outside in the kiddie pool. Otis gets bathed in the bathtub, unless we give him one while we are giving the others baths. :)

Outside with the hose in good weather. Inside in the stand in shower when not. And, sometimes, even at the horse barn :p

Outside with the hose!:o My parents won't let me give her a bath inside in the bathtub! Mean parents! I actually gave her a bath today! She looks sooo shiny!:)

I bathe Annie, Bailee, and Felony in the bath tub. Sometimes all 3 at once.

And, we bathe Molly outside with the water hose. She goes nuts when she has a bath, and she has longish hair that clogs up the drain (even though we brush her), so thats why.

I give Simba and Nala baths on our wooden deck out back, with the hose that hs the shower nozle on it. Sometimes I give it to them out front on the sidewalk on the side of our house.

I bath mine in the tubs at work. They are waist high so it doesn't hurt the back too much (although if you have a lot of little dogs you still end up bending over).

Bathtub for Claire and Rebel, Niki outside now, since she's bigger and kinda "frisky" lol!! :D She hasn't gotten one in awhile though, will soon though.

The only place I've ever bathed Nebo is at work. I usually just tie him up on the floor and use the shower hose thing on him. I can't imagine bathing him at home, he'd clog the drains with all his fur. :o

Reggie and Sydney get bathed in the tubs at work when they get a haircut, and in the bathtub at home between haircuts.

Mostly in the bathtub with a shower hose. When the weather is as hot as it's been lately, I can use the hose on the patio. Our city water comes from a holding tank and doesn't get very cold in the summer.

I have to tie them to the fence so they don't roll in the sand. That can be impossible to get out.

I had to put other, because it depends on the season. In the summer, it is on the deck with the hose. In the winter, it is in the bath tub. :)

Sylvia and Harley get bathed in the utility sink in the laundry room. Harley is just small enough to fit. Two more pounds and he would have to be in the bath tub :D

I bathe Kia in the bathtub. Sometimes, if she's REALLY stinky, I'll make an appointment at PetCo.

I bathe Bella in the bath tub. She actually gets a bath every 3 weeks but I alternate her baths with the baths she gets at the groomers, so her appointments with the groomer can be six weeks apart. Oh my aching back. I wish I had a bath tub like the one at the groomers. :)

Ripley gets bathed in the kitchen sink every three weeks. He is so easy to do. :)

My dogs get bathed in the tub at work, in a waist high sink like Shelteez2.

I use to bathe Murph and Maddie in the tub, but it was just impossible to lift Oz in there, once he was grown. I got a hose attachment for the shower for him and then started bathing all of them there. Much, much easier on my back too and no struggles to get anybody in there.

I've bathed Murph and Maddie outside with the hose during the summer, but Oz and Gully don't seem to like it, so I just stick with the shower for them.

Mine get their baths in the tub. But I think I will start bathing Dana outside when the weather is warm. Great idea, I didn't even think of that!
