Have You Ever Bathed Your Dog Outside?

:D Well all I have to state is the last time I tried that trick of bathing my dogs outside was by the time I was done I dont know who got bathed me or the dogs.. So I decided if I ever try that again I will invest in a wetsuit.. Realy now I buy those shampoo cloths & they work good & the dogs like them..

I have an attachment that hooks on the shower and I just walk mine in there to bath them. Makes it nicer then outside, because you can control the temperature. No way I could lift them into the tub anymore.

I have bathed them outside too though, when the weather's nice and hot. I put the hose attachment on a very gentle setting with the water flow and just keep my hand on their chest to keep them from running off. I started when they're puppies, so they tolerate it okay. I wouldn't say it's high on their lists of things to do though.

But I do have to say, that things worked out so well with the groomer for Oz and Gull, I'm going to do that on a regular basis now. Oz smelled awesome for a month. Gull a couple of weeks. And their shedding was down. Me and my back have decided it's well worth the 40 bucks, twice a year. :)

We usually bathe them outside. A good "stay" works well in situations like these. When I bathe other people's dogs I tie them to the gate. We have a cement sidewalk on the side that I bathe them on, keeps their pawsies clean too. :)

When it gets "cold" or it's late at night we bathe them in the tub. They all know the command "Get in the Tub", so that works nicely. :)

We have before, but usally we do it in the bath tub.
