Then when I've got Bullet wrapped in a towel and start to walk, Rio gets even more "aggressive" (not sure that's what she's really expressing) and tries to bite me even more. Once I put Bullet on the ground, Rio chills out. It's making it so hard to bathe Bullet, not because of him but because of how Rio acts!
My Gracie does that, so I've found if I bathe her first, then there aren't any issues. I think she's jealous someone's getting more attention than her.
Trying bathing Rio first and see if there's a difference. Let Rio run around wet and rubbing all over while you bath Bullet, then let Bullet run while you comb out Rio and switch them back and forth the first few times. Worked with Gracie.
