| Bath Time Where do you bathe your Yorkie(s)? Tub or sink? I have only done it once on my new baby, and the sink was too small. I think the tub is too big. Thanks. Kate |

| I use the bathtub, but I end up getting soaked, too, because he's learned to jump out & I have to keep hold of him the whole time. The upside to using the tub is that I can get the bath done in 1/2 the time because we have a hand-held shower nozzle which gets the rinsing done much faster.

| I bathe Bella in one side of our kitchen sink, but she is still little!! She doesn't try to get out anymore but she doesn't exactly like it either, she tolerates it

| Definitely the kitchen sink!! Assures the kitchen gets sanitized every week!! Some people object ... my rationalization is ... MY house, MY sink, MY Yorkie!!! When we ever stay at our home long enough we will do some remodeling and it includes enlarging the laundry room to include a neat "grooming station" for Toto!!

| I bath Cordelia in the tub even though it is way too big, but the sink it too small for me to handle her.

| I use the kitchen sink. It seems a little easier, since I'm standing while doing the bathing. Today's actually bathing day at our house!!

| I usually bathe Hallie in the kitchen sink since she is smaller than Simon and Simon in the bathtub. Lately Hallie has figured out how to jump in the tub when I'm bathing Simon and they play in the water. It takes me all afternoon to get them clean I bought one of those hand-held sprayers at Petsmart and don't know how I lived without it, it is wonderful and makes rinsing so much better! |

| I also use the kitchen sink Yesterday was grooming day and then my kitchen was sanatized. I find it easier on my back than the bathtub, which I have tried. I also feel like I have a better hold on Tia in the sink (she's squirmy!)

| I use the bathtub. The laundry tub's water pressure is too high. I have a detachable head with a hose that I can use to rinse him. He stands up when he's in the tub, trying to get out, which makes it easier for me to wash him.

| We bathe Sully in the bathtub, because we have a detachable shower head that we bring down and can use directly on him. If we used the sink....he'd jump out, lol.
