one side of our sink is bigger and deeper than the other side. And, we have a sprayer faucet. Big help! I fill the sink with a couple of inches of water with tear free shampoo to let his feet soak and then I put him in it. I have two treats, a towel, a cup and the shampoo and conditioner open and ready to go. No stopping once you start! I get him wet,shampoo, rinse, let the water out of the sink. all the time talking to him and giving him a little bit of the training treats. Then do the conditioner, rinse etc. He doesn't like his face wet, but he is letting me get the sprayer closer to his snout to rinse. I wrap him up and carry him to the bathroom for the next adventure....blow drying! I used to have to sit on the floor & hold him and try to dry him. Now I throw the towel on the floor watch him go crazy, drying himself. quite funny! I fire up the blow dryer and he will stand still and let me use the brush and dry him...at a distance. He is getting closer to me. I tried to shower with him, but I thought I'd drop him, so not comfortable for me or him.
sorry so long...it does take time for trust and comfort of both you and your baby...much luck.. Donna
