Samantha acts much the same way when I bathe her. My brother has to pick her up and put her in the tub because she'll just back out of the bathroom if you try to lead her in. When she's in the tub, she hunches over and shivers and gives me a really sad, soulful look. We talk soothingly to her the entire time and she gets a treat when she gets out, but it doesn't seem to help. Really surprised me at first being as she's got Lab (or some other water dog in her) that she was so afraid.
Speaking of which... I really should give her one more bath before winter sets in...
