LOL, I don't blame you! Angel used to let give him baths.Hopefully not but right now he's giving us murder looks and not letting us near him. We did our best, I promise!!! If he ever needs a bath again, I want full body armor.
Whined the whole time, but let me. (I remember the first time, I didn't know what to expect, so put on a Jean jacket..Just in case! Lol!) He was a good boy though. Only tried to get away.
The first two years of our 6 & 1/2 together, he was indoor/ outdoor, & would get itchy from pollen, so I'd give him a bath about once a month w/ the 800PetMeds aloe & oatmeal shampoo & cond. It's good stuff.
Sammy, on the other hand, I wish I could, because she does go out, & also likes to roll in the sand. but because she goes outside, I don't cut her nails, & I wouldn't dare try & give her one. I'd be bloody too! I tried to just trim the tips of her nails a cpl times, & she doesn't even like her paws handled much.
