Bath or shower? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

alona1 · 01-03-2006, 06:48 AM

Tino loves havin a shower but doesnt think much of having a bath, I think this is because he gets cold so quickly. He's such a fussy lil pup - thats why I love him!!

Do any of your Yorkies prefer a bath or shower?

I wash Gidget in the sink and use the sprayer thingy!

She loves getting her bath!

I give my dogs baths in the sink. I use the sprayer.

Nikko gets bathed in the sink. He loves it because he gets a treat while he being bathed for being such a good boy and letting mommy wash him.

Usually I bathe my 2 in the sink, but I occasionally will take them in the shower with me. Does that make me a weirdo?? They really love it.

Syd likes baths. I've never tried a shower...but since she is terrified of the sprayer in the kitchen sink...I'm guessing she wouldn't like the shower either.

Ours go in the tub, but we use the shower head to wash them, and leave the drain open.

So I don't know if you would call it a bath or a shower?

They don't care for it, but know there is a treat for them when they are done, so they tolerate it.

Guess I'm a weirdo then too!

Sometimes I'll wash her in the sink, but I usually just yell at hubby to bring her in the shower after I'm done washing my own hair. I think it's easier. She doesn't like baths anyway, but the shower seems to bother her less than doing it in the sink.

Mac & Mellie take baths. They like to go swimming in the tub for a little bit before they get washed.

Can you imagine new people coming to our homes on reading on here and reading that we bathe our babies in the sink--I use the kitchen sink..of course, I do disinfect it but still, well.........

Lexi Rae · 01-04-2006, 11:04 AM

i put lexi in the bath tub, but use the shower nozzel....of course she hates it.

LittleMissChloe · 01-04-2006, 11:49 AM

Chloe gets both baths and showers. I find it easier putting her in the tub with more space, but my mom showers her. Shes not to fond on either but enjoys showers more and loves the treats that come after.
