Am I alone here?
Does your Yorkie shower with you?
Ever? Anyone?
Come on, someone has to have at least once!?!
This is how it started for us...
I got my Scoobers, he's a rescue pup mill reject came equip with MAJOR fear, socialization, behavioral issues.
One of those issues was fear of water in the bath. Mainly standing water.
So I went and bought a new shower head the kind with a double head one on top one on a "rope" with a handheld sprayer (we have them in every shower now actually).
Anyways it worked wonders I could "bath" him at home myself now and he wasn't terrified.
Once he got bigger I was thankful I had this shower sprayer to wash him made it easier.
Scoobers kept growing, and growing and growing! From under 10# at 5 months to a staggering 21# when he had a bit of weight on him!
Finally I was getting wet well soaked trying to 'bath' him.
So I tossed on my swim suit to close the curtain and wash him he did great with the curtain closed he just sat there!
Then it became our routine, he'd get in the shower with me every other morning or so, I'd grab the hand held spray him down, wash/condition and he would too, while I'd wash off he'd actually just sit patiently at the end of the tub away from the main spouts spray and wait for me to switch to the hand held to wash him off.
I started Princess this way right away as she was still a pup when I got her.
Elvis took baths at first I tried the shower thing (he must have thought I was on drugs LOL because) he looked at me that way and dove through the curtain in one swift gazelle like move!
Anyways Elvis showers with me now as long as I can catch him from hiding under my bed when he realizes it's shower time...
oh! I only shower one dog at a time...taking a shower with three dogs now that's just weird...
