| I wrap them in a big towel & get as much water out as I can with that, using a second one when it's soaked Then I brush them dry whilst blowing them with a hairdryer on a warm setting. That way they don't get cold. If I let them, they'd hurtle round drying themselves rubbing against the sofas & carpets, getting their hair full of tangles in the process |

| Baths Bailey was not a fan of baths either. He is tolerating them a little more now. Usually there are two of us bathing him. We have a small bucket that we fill with warm water (we put a face cloth on the bottom for him to stand on). Then we quickly wet him and wash. After we rinse him off we quickly towel dry him then let him shake out a little. He is doing much better, he no longer tries to jump out of the bucket every 2 minutes.

| Sorry if you've already posted there, not been to look, but do you know about the Europe site under the Regional section at the top of the main page? There are quite a few of us who post on there as well as the main sections |

| Hi Chellby, I believe it's better to brush them while they are still damp. I use a miracle spray on any tangles to help get them out without hurting. Mine didn't like the hair dryer at first, but now they're fine. Just takes them a while to get used to it. Have fun bathing Tino Sheilagh

| I let Jobey dry first and then I brush him. To me it seems to make his fur shinier. I also use baby shampoo on him and it makes his fur so silky. |

| Jobey is so funny after he gets a bath, he'll run around and drag his face on the carpet. I guess he's trying to dry off. It's the funniest thing. I'll have to post a video of it.
