| I do it only when I'm in a hurry to get us both showered and out the door. Either way, Kaji hates bath time. He hates it so much, he tries to hurry the process along to get it over with. As soon as I'm done shampooing his body he runs over to the spigot to rinse himself off before I get a chance to wash his beard and clean his face. It makes me laugh every time! As for in the shower, Kaji just walks around the tub until I pick him up and rinse him off.

| Lol, I saw this post and thought you meant Shower as in Baby shower. My lil boy has horrible separation anxiety and cannot stand it when I'm in there, he tries so hard to jump in but is way to small. |

I remember that post...lol I always clean the kitchen sink before bathing the dogs in it...lol I also put down special mats for them to stand on, too. I can adjust the sprayer, and have seen the doggie ones, but the shower head set at the 'rain' setting is just soooo wonderful...we leave it that way because it is sooo nice. I consider the sink to be 'the last dish' when washing dishes anyway, but with all that food being washed/rinsed off in the sink, I'm more concerned that nothing is still on their feet after a bath in it than before. I worry they might get a 'moldy particle' or something...irrational...yep, I know! hee hee But, 'they say' that the kitchen sink and sponge are some of the 'nastiest' even when you clean everything...which kind of makes no sense if your dish soap is truly "anti-bacterial" like it says on the bottle. I have a walk-in shower with sliding glass doors, and do either the both dogs in the double sink...tandem...or in the shower...tandem also. Sunny, I always wash by herself...she takes a lot more time, especially to dry and brush out. I know what you mean about the bending, though, but the shower is just so fast with that wide spray. I 'could' put a waist high wash table in the shower...I just don't at this time.

| Most here bathe once a week, from what I've read in previous "how often" threads. There is the rare occasion when someone regularly bathes more often. For example, the dog has severe allergies, or the human has severe allergies like me. I bathe Kaji 2-3 times a week otherwise I wouldn't be able to breathe. That's not including, Kaji's been rolling in the mud, type of baths.

YT 2000 Club Donating Member | Well my 2boys one loves the shower one has no interest in it. And wouldn't you know it is my largest beastie that always wants in the shower with me. I blame myself as when he was a pup I wanted him used to getting bathed in the bath tub. He is my water boy - loves all water! But at 110+ and lots of coat I don't want him in with me every day! Razzle our Yorkie, never evidenced an interest in coming in with me. Just checking out the bath tub to see if MOm is okay in there. Also a trick for the laundry sink - I put in a high sider plastic box which lifts up the height so I don't have to bend much at all anymore. I also have the pet sprayer hose and that works well.

My previous dog was 120+ lbs, so I needed pretty much everything new...and much smaller.
