Giving the Dogs a Bath!
Jaz and Stewie HATE, and I mean Hate Baths. I told the puppies "It's time for a bath!" and they both started to freak. Jaz as you can see was cowering as I was trying to get her, since she wouldn't come to me.
After (struggling hard) to get both dog's into the bathroom, Stewie wedged himself in between the toilet and the cupboard, while Jaz jumped up ontop of the toilet.
Finally I get them both into the bathtub with some warm water already in it. I don't have a retractable shower head so I have to use an old 1 gallon platic pitcher to scoop up water to wet the dogs. Neither of them like it.
After getting them both fully soaked, I soup'em up.
After getting them completely rinsed off I rinse off somemore. Now I'm only one person and I can only dry off one dog at a time so I generally have to make one stay in the bathtub while I dry off the other.
I usually dry Stewie off first. I start with the head, the neck, then the front arms. After that I help him out of the Bathtub and dry him as best as I can with a towel that I have warmed up in the dryer.
Then it's Jazz's turn. Repeat of the drying process.
My Puppies's are now mostly dry. But I'll rewrap them both in a Third warmed towel.
And WAHLA! They are now non stinky and clean. They even smell good. They are dry while I am now in need of a change of dry clothes!
