Bathtime Trick!! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I had to give Olivia a bath today, her face was positively disgusting. Instead of using my hand to clean her teeny little face (shes only 3 lbs), I tried a child's toothbrush (hello kitty if you must know

) that I got at the dollar store. I put a little bit of shampoo on it and cleaned the bridge of her nose, down her beard and up across the top of her head to her ears. It worked! Her face is sooo clean, especially where thre are sometimes tear stains. Hope this helps some of you!

Great Idea. I know I will go through hell though. My little Mari (Mariposa) does not like her bath. She just is soooo wiggly!
