Our girls don't like a bath either, but they tolerate it. I put cotton balls in their ears to keep the inside dry while I'm bathing the rest of them. I do the ears seperately from the full bath. We use a hand held shower attachment for their bath, makes it a lot easier. They are ok with the blow dryer and combing out. They get daily combing and tolerate that ok.

I give them a massage when everything is quiet, sort of relaxs them a lot. Try the massage technique, touching them all over and see how it calms them down. Sort of like the "T-Touch method".

If they get pesty, we can just say " Does anyone want a BATH NOW", and in seconds they both scatter out of site..... works every time.
