| My Rosie hides under the bed. She doesn't come out until Brutus's bath is finished and he is in the kitchen receiving his "good boy treat". That's when I give her a treat as well, scoop her up and into the bath for her. |

| When I tell Callie its bath time she runs up the stairs and waits in the bathroom. I try to make bath time fun even if that makes it take longer. I sing silly songs to her, i bought a toy that makes noise in the tub, and she gets a treat when she lets me brush her teeth and everything.

| Ella is not a happy girl when she is in the sink. I am wondering - do they ever get used to it and actually enjoy it??

| When I mention the word "bath" Max runs full speed into the bathroom, jumps in the tub and lays down. Cooper runs full speed under a table and hides in a corner.

| When Heidi realizes she's going to get a bath she ducks her head and runs straight to the sofa and into her dog bed -- like her dog bed is really going to protect her! lol Her "safe place" just makes it all the easaier to scoop her up and into the tub.

| I don't even get to say bath with Princess...once she hears the tub water running & sees me getting a towel she knows-and she's on high alert. She wont hide, she doesn't want to be cornered. She just runs! And she doesn't act this way when I'm getting in the shower.

| Aren't our pups intelligent? I have to spell the word bath, because if I say it, Piccolo runs and hides. (Guess she will learn how to spell next - haha)

| bath time If I say the word bath, charlie hangs his head low and kind of slinks off to another room like he trying to NOT be seen. Now if I dont SAY bath but just get the towel/soap and start the water in the sink he does the same thing. it so funny I wash dishes in the sink and run the water the same way but when he sees the towel and the soap thats it he out of there !

| Bella runs to the couch or our bed and hides her head only under the pillows. The rest of her sticks out. "I cann't see you, you cann't see me...." |

| My other 2 Yorkies hated baths but Tibbe loves his bath! I can't believe I finally have a Yorkie that loves the water and stands quite still and relaxed as he is bathed. He's amazing.
