Where do you bath - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I wash all three of mine in the sink but Coral barely fits so if she gets any bigger I'm going to have to wash her in the tub.

I use the kitchen sink because its easier on my back. What I also do is cover my counters with wee wee pads and do all my grooming on the counter. it becomes a salon for them. my husband however likes to jump in the tub with all of them and act's like its a swimming pool. Water, hair and suds all over the place for mommy to cleaning while they dry themselves on every surface.

I bathe Poppy in the bath tub

Lindsay1973 · 11-13-2008, 09:52 PM

I bath them all in the bath our sink is too small,Jamie hates to bath and when he sees me bathing he hides because I usually do him next.I tell him "I'm going to bath the baby, that baby right there" and he runs and hides under the pillow on the bed -He thinks that I will never find him there.

Kitchen sink. And then they are dried, trimmed, and groomed on a box I keep in my living room. They are all used to it and know the treats will be flowing as soon as momma is done. : )

Here is a pic of my grooming box. LOL

I do both. The kitchen sink is easier but messier. The tub is hard on the back-but definately able to contain the suds better. Lizzie is a jumper

Teddi takes a shower with me every Saturday morning (or Friday morning if we don't have timme on Sat). Then I put her wrapped in a towel in the bathroom sink. She snuggles down and I blow dry one side of her and then I flip her over and blow dry the other side. I love how fluffy she is after her bath and she always smells so good!

Maxi gets his baths in the kitchen sink. My sink is very deep so it is perfect.

I wash my dogs in the bathtub. I would love to wash my dog in the kitchen sink, but my family thinks that not sanitary. I like the nozzle at the sink that allows me to use the sprayer to wash my dog. I cannot find a sprayer that fits my bathtub.

abaddon248 · 11-14-2008, 06:30 AM

Cutie fits in my sink and its so much easier for me because it takes all about 7 minutes and drying takes about 2 ! lol but when it comes to Max my sheltie...he is bigger and almost the size of the sink but he takes so long that I still bathe him in the sink because of the time that it takes.. if that makes sense?

krisknr · 11-14-2008, 06:37 AM

My Brutis is a squirmer so we use the bath tub. He gets away some times and jumping from the kitchen sink would be bad!!

I have a walk in shower and it makes it MUCH easier on us both.

I do the shower thing also. I take my shower then I holler for my daughter to bring me the pups. Those are the nights I'm just to lazy to take care of everyone individually.
