Thread: Batheing

  1. Batheing

    What do you use to give your dog a bath in?

    i voted for both the shower and the sink.
    depends on what kind of mood im in. 90% of the
    time though i use the sink to give Kirby a bath in.

    The tub for Bailey, and somewhere other than home for Peej.

    I do it either outside on the pavement with the hose or in the bath tub. Our bathroom is a swap afterwards!

    I've never bathed Nebo at home I always take him to work for the bath. When he gets muddy or something I'll put him in the tub (which is also the shower...) to rinse him off. We have a shower head that reaches pretty far.

    I bath Reggie and Sydney in the bathtub or at work.

    I voted for the bath tub although I have often bathed Ripley in the kitchen sink. If I am doing the dogs several days apart from each other I will use the sink for Ripley, but if I am bathing them both on the same day I will use the bath tub for both. Hubby bought the greatest hand held shower attachment which can be used or disabled to use the regular shower head. It was pretty pricey but is the greatest thing for dog bathing and makes it a breeze (that is, after actually getting Bella into the tub). Vette it's good to see you here!

    I said the bathtub although I don't usually take on that responsibility very often (ever seen a 130lb mastiff in the tub)!
    They ususally go to the groomers.

    Blaze loves outdoor scrubs, so I spray him down with the hose usually. He NEVER sits still in the bathtub; if I try to get that dog to get washed up in the tub, he makes an awful mess!!

    Domino, my guinea pig, however, gets baths in the sink every so often. It's so funny how he tries to jump out and slips and slides all over! I really have to be careful that he doesn't jump out and hurt himself!


    Thanks Kay!!

    Bathtub or the hose. I my stepdad ever caught me or my mom giving our dogs a bath in the tub we'd both be in the dog house.

    outdoors because my stepdad doesn't like all the hair in the drain. I think he sheds as much as a dalmatian!

    For Timber, it's the bath tub or the hose outside -- depends on the weather and such. When I finally co-own her again it will be bath tub only. I don't like washing her with the hose. I think the water is too cold. My catahoula will get the bathtub too, but I will just wash him at my work. What's the point of grooming dogs all day, then going home and bathing another? Might as well get it all done in one place.
    I've been BOO'd!

    I bath mine in the bathtub. They're a bit too big for the sink.

    I voted "other" -- in the spring - fall I use a kiddie pool in the backyard. In the winter, when it's too cold, I take them to be groomed.
